In Colombia, watershed planning is guided by spatial policies, in which it defines principles, objectives, strategies, and instruments of environmental and territorial management of the country to guarantee territorial management of the country to ensure interinstitutional coordination, exploitation and sustainable use of its natural resources such as water and soil. This context allows to take as a study case the watershed of the Dagua River, located on the Pacific slope of the Western Cordillera, in the Department of Valle del Cauca, Colombia, where the applicability of the planning mechanisms and instruments of the State and its institutions in the interinstitutional management of one of the most important basins in the country is analyzed. Methodologically, qualitative techniques such as document review, interviews with social agents and content analysis were used. The results show weaknesses in the coordination and articulation of these instruments with significant repercussions on the current environmental status of the basin.

Palabras clave : Modern state; environmental and territorial policies; watershed; Dagua River.
