PEREZ-VALBUENA, Gerson Javier; AYALA-GARCIA, Jhorland e CHIRIVI-BONILLA, Edwin Jaime. Urbanization and Community Commitment: Five Case Studies on Social Infrastructure in Education and Health. rev. econ. Caribe [online]. 2016, n.18, pp.140-159. ISSN 2011-2106.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we characterize and assess the geographical accessibility of free public housing projects - VIS and savers public housing - VIPA to urban public health and education facilities in five cities: Barranquilla, Soledad, Malambo, Valledupar and Soacha. Four indicators of accessibility are used: the average distance, the minimum distance and the amount and percentage of facilities within a two- and four- kilometer radio. As a result, it is found that the geographical accessibility is low relative to some international standards, especially in the case of health. In addition, free housing projects registered a lower availability than those for savers in most of the cases.
