The present work is based on results presented by specialists in water resources on experiences of the sectors most vulnerable to drought and those that demand quality water taking as reference the coffee zones of the north of Nicaragua. Based on a compilation of existing information as well as interviews and participatory workshops using territorial dialogue platforms with the objective of identifying the most probable trajectories that could decrease the vulnerability of coffee producers (Coffea arabica) to climate change and variability. In the conclusions of the study, we mentioned that the multi-strata coffee production technology with banana is a subject widely studied using an approach that applies decision-making tools to manage the productivity of the system - light resource management, nutrient cycles and banana optimization as a secondary crop, among others. It is necessary to develop an innovative participatory process to improve the management of water resources in coffee-growing communities to increase their capacity for adaptation and resilience in the face of climate change (variability of rainfall and droughts).
