The document describes the areas selected for community assessment in the Elqui River Basin. Three areas were selected. Each of these areas involves two or more interconnected rural communities. From a demographic perspective, the selected areas correspond to a group of census units, allowing for a statistical analysis using census data. The document contains demographic information on the selected localities, complemented by information gathered through focus groups with representatives of the community organizations existing in the localities. These focus groups were organized to identify climate adaptative experiences and climate vulnerabilities.
