GUTIERREZ-LOPEZ, Julián Alberto; QUENGUAN-LOPEZ, Lina Fernanda  and  BETANCOURT-CARVAJAL, Mario Andrés. Public Space endowment equity in Bogotá?. Rev. Arquit. (Bogotá) [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.1, pp.18-29. ISSN 1657-0308.  https://doi.org/10.14718/revarq.2020.2606.

Accelerated urban growth generates greater demand of infraestructura! services and endowments. It has also modified open, public space of cities, and in this regard, it is expected to be distributed in an equitable manner within the city thus guaranteeing optimum coverage, especially for the most vulnerable populations. This work aims to analyze equity in the distribution of open public in Bogotá, based on a characterization of poverty, by districts, and its relationship with the quality indicators of public space. This analysis determines which locations have the highest levels of poverty in the city and if those are corresponding to the biggest allocation of amenities with the highest endowments, in terms of public investment. A discussion scenario is established in the face of the focused involvement of local government investments.

Keywords : quality of life; social capital; urban habitat; poverty indicators; urban indicators; public politics; socio-spatial segregation; vulnerability.
