Abstract

Water is essential for human survival and well-being. In Gumbasa District, Sigi Regency, the availability of clean water has significantly decreased following a recent earthquake. Debates persist regarding the perception of water either as an economic commodity or a social good. This article explores the evolution of water rights as human rights and examines initiatives to ensure and provide clean water in the post-disaster context of Gumbasa District. Employing a normative juridical approach, this research analyzes secondary data from library resources. Findings underscore that the right to water entails nondiscriminatory access for all. The research highlights the critical role of the Sigi Regency Government in addressing disparities in water access, which are influenced not only by economic inequality but also by geographic and natural conditions. These factors exacerbate challenges in securing clean water access for some community segments, particularly in restoring water sources post-disaster.
