Accessible Architecture: Public Educational Center for Children with Visual Disabilities in the District of San Juan de Lurigancho, Lima
Abstract
Over the years, people with disabilities have been qualified as “phenomena”, generating their isolation from a “normal” reality; affecting most of their rights, including access to a decent education. In Lima, there is a great deficit of educational centers for people with disabilities and especially for people with visual disabilities and the existing ones do not offer an inclusive infrastructure or even adapted to develop their activities and job training normally. This article exposes the proposal of an Educational Center for Blind Children, in the district of San Juan de Lurigancho; betting on a creative and inclusive design for the development of the skills and competences of the disabled student.
