Sustainable development for water resources management is an important but very broad and complex issue. The conditions and requirements for its achievement could vary from country to country: it depends on factors such as geographical conditions, socio-economic issues, regional practices, institutional arrangements, legal frameworks and cultural background. In the case of Mexico, the sustainable development for water resources planning and management cannot be ensured without a comprehensive analysis of both the legislative and legislative frameworks. The regional development of the country, which to a significant extent can be triggered by efficient water resources management, would undoubtedly be dependent on the modification of the weaknesses and contradictions in the existing policies, laws and regulations, and their implementation.
