The lack of coverage of basic sanitation services in peri-urban communities in developing countries has become a major challenge (Pryoret. al.1982), because thanks to the lack of budget, must be made selective and optimizing processes to achieve sufficient investment towards improving such shortcomings, it is worrying how large investments of money in basic sanitation technologies often do notmeet the expectations that were expected of them (Ospina O., et al. 2010).In this context, the methodology developed in this paper consisted of a thorough investigation of theoretical and practical, national and international level related to the subject, those cases of studies were compiled with which were identified through the Leopold matrix , the most significant environmental impacts that each project, with that, was raised and created a new matrix which lists the phases of each project (design, implementation and operation), which can identify the key elements to consider for achieve success of these technologies. This process was supplemented by field work, in the 6th district of Soacha, Colombia, in an area known as Altos de la Florida and a series of surveys of national and international experts that are flagged in the field. As a result highlights the importance of the processes of appropriation and transfer of technologies as they are the ones which play a key factor in the success or failure of projects. These allow you to create a strong link between communities
