13 p, 601.2 KB Tap water, bottled water or in-home water treatment systems : Insights on household perceptions and choices / March, Hug (Universitat Oberta de Catalunya. Internet Interdisciplinary Institute (IN3)) ; Garcia, Xavier (Institut d'Estudis Regionals i Metropolitans de Barcelona) ; Domene, Elena (Institut d'Estudis Regionals i Metropolitans de Barcelona) ; Saurí i Pujol, David (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Geografia)
This article addresses household strategies for coping with perceived tap water quality issues. By using a household survey (n = 581) in Catalonia (Spain) and three models, this article analyses the drivers and motivations behind the installation of in-home water treatment systems, and the use of bottled water for drinking and cooking.

Climate change is expected to reduce water availability in the Mediterranean region and water management needs to adapt to future conditions. The aims of this study were (1) to develop a participatory approach for identifying and evaluating management options for river basin climate adaptation and (2) to apply and evaluate the approach in four case-study river basins across the Mediterranean.
