The world’s population still faces major challenges regarding water and sanitation services to serve everyone, especially in rural areas. Faced with a worldwide trend, these services are presented in a historical framework of remunicipalization. In this context, the discussion of the topic is well suited from the perspective of the co-production of the public good. The objective is to analyze how the processes of remunicipalization of water and sanitation services can represent a possibility for the development of co-production of the public good. Therefore, we opted for a theoretical investigation based on the national and international literature on the subject. Finally, we present an agenda of studies and research hypotheses for the relations between the remunicipalization processes of water and sanitation services and the development of the co-production of the public good.
