Chile's 1,981 Water Code (CA81) established a market-oriented allocation model based on private, perpetual, and tradable water rights, sharply limiting the state's regulatory role.

The (not-so-free) Chilean water model. The case of the Antofagasta Region, Atacama Desert, Chile
Water allocation under climate change
Chile is positioned in the 20th rank of water availability per capita. Nonetheless, water security levels vary across the territory. Around 70% of the national population lives in arid and semiarid regions, where a persistent drought has been experienced over the last decade.
