Sumario:This essay evaluated the water resources of the Ludueña’s stream-basin (Santa Fe, Argentina) through several indicators that were selected and integrated in a sustainable indicators’s system. It used a multiscalar, systematic, and a complex approach on basin-scale through the GEO method applied to Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) combined with the DPSIR model (Driving forces – Pressure – State – Impact – Responses). The Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) considers anthropic intervention as an essential part of the hydrological cycle in a basin-scale, this results in a water-social cycle. It detected twenty-six (26) critical points which could allow a development for criteria destined for a sustainable management’s territory political. This approach can be adapted and replied in similar basins. This work constitutes a contribution to the integrated environmental diagnosis and is useful as an input for Public Organizations that must ensure the conservation of water resources in the Ludueña stream basin.
