    The objective of the study is to determine the relationship that exists between acute diarrheal diseases (EDAs) and the quality of water for human consumption in Tayacaja-Huancavelica, 2023. The study has a non-experimental, longitudinal and correlational design; with a population of 379 town centers in the province of Tayacaja, Huancavelica region, the sample covered 191 town centers and the sampling method used was non-probabilistic; therefore, precise parameters for inclusion and exclusion were put into practice. As a result, of the 23 districts examined, 9 districts have a high prevalence of EDAs. Regarding the relationship between EDAs and water quality, there is a significant relationship since p=0.000 and a chi square value of 86.854 were obtained. In the dimension of physicochemical parameters, it was revealed that there is a notable connection between EDAs and the absence of residual chlorine in water for human consumption, obtaining a value of p=0.000 and a chi-square value of 135.922; On the contrary, in the relationship between EDAs and the turbidity of water intended for human consumption, no significant correlation has been established. In the dimension of parasitological parameters, no significant relationship was found between EDAs and the presence of harmful parasites in water for human consumption, obtaining a p value = 0.932 and a chi-square value of 0.007. In the dimension of microbiological parameters, it was determined that there is an important correlation between the EDAs with the presence of total Coliforms in water for human consumption, a statistical value of p=0.000 and a chi-square value of 125.319 was obtained; Furthermore, in the correlation between EDAs and the presence of thermotolerant Coliforms, a notable association was also established with a p value = 0.000 and a chi-square value of 35.236. It was concluded that water quality is related to the appearance of acute diarrheal diseases in the province of Tayacaja.
