    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This paper presents a general approach to rainwater as a water resource. The use of&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;rainwater, a common practice in many civilizations of the past throughout the planet,&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;is regaining prominence in both developed and developing countries. In the latter&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;and especially in some rural areas of Asia, Africa and Latin America, rainwater may&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;provide more abundant and better-quality water than distant and polluted surface or&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;groundwater sources. In developed countries, the use of rainwater diminishes pressures&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;on public networks, satisfying certain uses without having to resort to very expensive&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;and environmentally problematic infrastructures. However, rainwater suffers from a&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;major problem which is the uncertainty of supply, especially in the absence of wellsized&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;catchment surfaces and storage tanks for areas of scarce and erratic rainfall. In&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;hydrosocial terms, the use of rainwater can empower commuThe objective of this article&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;is highlighting the importance of the hydrosocial strategies and practices implemented&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;in the 30 missionary towns founded between the XVII and XVIII centuries in the Vice&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Royalty of the Rio de la Plata by the Society of Jesus, a Catholic religious order, among the&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;region&amp;rsquo;s Tupi-Guarani indigenous communities. It aims to contribute towards rescuing&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;and valuing the historical practices of collection and use of river and rainwater by Jesuit-&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Guarani communities, practices that remain alive in the region&amp;rsquo;s cultural geography&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;and social memory. The work is grounded on the analysis and interpretation of cultural&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;responses to water-related issues, the historical precedents of such strategies, practices&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;and knowledge, and the recognition of their value through historiographical research.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;It seeks to provide elements for the study of hydro-social cultures reflecting on past&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;processes and the production of knowledges associated to water cultures in the Guarani&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;region of South America.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
