Integration of basic sanitation, water resources and health is paramount for sustainable development. The basic sanitation in Brazil is analysed, along with its impacts on water resources and health, and perspectives for addressing problems. Reflections are based on applicable documents and ruling texts. Some of the unsolved basic sanitation issues may be dealt with through instruments and the framework of water resources management. Moreover, the river basin can be used as a reference unit for planning the Federal Basic Sanitation Policy, and basic sanitation plans must be compatible with the river basins plans of the corresponding region. Improvements in the water supply and sewerage service should also take into account innovative solutions which depend upon the health framework in place. Outcomes are expected to promote the intersectoral efficiency in Brazil and Latin America and also faster actions aimed at the improvement of basic sanitation.
