A região Nordeste do Brasil vem sendo alvo de medidas do Estado a mais de um século, na tentativa de solucionar o problema da falta de água em época de secas. O Estado do Ceará, por sua vez, apresenta boa parte de seu território inserido no semiárido brasileiro, uma região caracterizada pelo clima seco, com poucas chuvas e elevada evapotranspiração. A problemática da água existe há bastante tempo, principalmente o acesso em quantidade e qualidade suficientes para atender a população. O presente trabalho tem como tema central a questão dos recursos hídricos, com enfoque no abastecimento humano do município de Cariré, localizado na região noroeste do Ceará. Nosso objetivo consiste em apresentar um panorama de como atualmente a população carireense tem acesso à água potável. A metodologia adotada constitui-se em duas etapas: na primeira, realizamos levantamento de material bibliográfico e a segunda diz respeito a parte prática realizada em saídas a campo. Segundo a ONU, a água é um bem comum e que deve ser de acesso a todos, é um direito humano. Nesta perspectiva, o gerenciamento adequado dos recursos hídricos é essencial para a manutenção da qualidade de vida. Palavras-chave: Recursos Hídricos; Abastecimento Humano; Cariré-Ce.

RÉSUMÉLa région du nord-est du Brésil est la cible de mesures prises par l’État depuis plus d’un siècle pour tenter de résoudre le problème de la pénurie d’eau en saison sèche. L’État du Ceará, en revanche, présente une bonne partie de son territoire inséré dans le semi-aride brésilien, région caractérisée par un climat sec, avec peu de pluies et une forte évapotranspiration. Le problème de l'eau existe depuis longtemps, principalement l'accès en quantité et qualité suffisantes pour satisfaire la population. Le travail actuel a pour thème central la question des ressources en eau, en mettant l'accent sur l'approvisionnement humain de la municipalité de Cariré, située dans la région nord-ouest du Ceará. Notre objectif est de présenter un aperçu de la façon dont la population carioca a actuellement accès à l’eau potable. La méthodologie adoptée comporte deux étapes: dans le premier, nous procédons à une enquête sur le matériel bibliographique et le second à la partie pratique réalisée lors des visites sur le terrain. Selon l'ONU, l'eau est un bien commun et doit être accessible à tous, c'est un droit humain. Dans cette perspective, la gestion adéquate des ressources en eau est essentielle au maintien de la qualité de la vie.Mots-clés: Ressources en eau; Approvisionnement humain; Cariré-Ce.

The decentralization policy has long been implemented in Indonesia, but issues related to community development was still a serious problem. Hence the concept of community-based development became the most attentive development concept meantime. This study was conducted in 2010 in Purbalingga Regency. This study used descriptive and exploratory research method. Data collection was done through in-depth interviews, discussions, field trips, and literature study. Data obtained were analyzed using qualitative research methods. The result shows that the implementation of regional autonomy increased empowerment practice both in quantity and quality. Developing empowerment models are Program PNPM Mandiri Pedesaan, TMMD, PKP, Puspahastama, and Desa Sehat Mandiri. Implementation of community development programs generates a positive impact on society both physical and nonphysical. Many problems encountered in community development programs, for instance in terms of the policy, planning, implementation, financial, human resources, and coordination. Amongst all those problems, we expected that in the future there will be a national policy which able to integrate and synergize all government levels and units, and also stakeholders in the implementation of community development programs.

Education Process

One of the important parts relating to education for children is teaching da’wah since their early age, so that it becomes a habit for their life till they reach adulthood. Da'wah is regarded as a good process of education and it really should refer to the Islamic values which is implemented to children since early age. If this education process can run well, it would generate younger generations who have strong commitment. Introducing da’wah in early childhood requires extra patience to understand the child's condition; like the pra-formal operational stage of cognitive growth process, so that it requires easily understandable methods for children in its implementation. There are some methods to introduce da’wah for children; namely singing, role model, role playing, field trips, poetry, and speeches.***Salah satu bagian penting yang harus mendapatkan perhatian terkait dengan pendidikan yang diberikan sejak usia dini adalah mengajarkan dakwah pada anak sejak dini, sehingga dakwah sudah menjadi kebiasaan dan menjadi bagian hidup anak ketika dewasa. Dakwah dipandang sebagai proses pendidikan yang baik dan benar-benar harus mengacu pada nilai-nilai Islam yang diterapkan sedini mungkin kepada anak-anak. Apabila proses tersebut dapat berjalan dengan baik, maka akan muncul generasi muda yang memiliki komitmen yang kuat. Untuk mengenalkan dakwah pada anak usia dini membutuhkan kesabaran yang ekstra dengan memahami kondisi anak misalnya proses pertumbuhan kognitifnya yang masih dalam tahap pra operasional formal, sehingga membutuhkan metode dalam aplikasinya yang mudah difahami anak. Metode dalam mengenalkan dakwah pada anak melalui bernyanyi, tauladan, bermain peran, karya wisata, bersyair, dan berpidato.
