To identify the capacity to provide appropriate access to facilities and equipment that encourage drinking water consumption at the Universidad de Panamá, as part of its commitment to promote behaviors that benefit the health of this community.
A descriptive statistical study and a multivariate analysis were carried out using the correspondence analysis technique to explore relationships among the variables "University Group" (students, teachers and administrative staff) vs. "Access to water sources" and "Access to water sources" vs. "Inputs to facilitate water consumption".
66.3% of the population surveyed recognized drinking water as the most accessible drink for consumption, mainly from water sources, followed by bottled water.
This work highlights the importance of promoting water consumption in the university population, suggesting that the Universidad de Panamá has infrastructure conditions that allow water intake, thus promoting healthy habits and fulfilling its commitment to the health of the population.
