The purpose of this research is to explore the realities of water supply practices of the urban poor located in the outskirts of Lima city. It follows an explorative and descriptive study through a case-based approach. To achieve that aim, the research gathers evidence from fieldwork in three barrios of the peri-urban settlement Jose Carlos Mariategui located in the district of San Juan de Lurigancho. The investigation illustrates how the urban waterscape shapes and is being shaped by the socio-spatial organization of the settlement, the everyday practices for basic water access and the current policy discourses of the water utility. Findings from the case study reveal the opportunities and challenges of progressive self-provision and community-led schemes. It demonstrates that heterogeneous systems for water access in hillsides draw generally from the interlinkages between formal-informal provisions such as public water standpipes with unofficial arrangements. Thus, hybrid service provision modalities emerge to secure daily needs. It is constructed by adaptation strategies, social behavior such as modes of contestation and trust, and institutional-organizational arrangements for operation and maintenance. The research seeks to contribute to the academic debates on water supply configurations in the global south and to deepen the understanding for sustained water provision in informal areas.
