I28-R145-8887_oai2022-03-30 Hernández, Vladimir Palma Suárez, Emily Teresita 2021-12-21 The study of disabilities is relevant because space and concepts related to mobility and accessibility are important to the lives of disabled people. This article, from the perspective of urban geography, denounces unjust situations for those with intellectual disabilities during their daily transit through the city of Chihuahua. It parts from a methodological perspective that advocates spatial ethnography in order to explore the various experiences of disabled people, considering three restrictions such as individual skills, authority placed limitations, and joining, as well as the assessment of accessibility barriers. The spatial separation of home and work represent the main obstacle for people with disabilities and it is intensified by mobility difficulties during transit due to inaccessibility to public transportation and the conditions of an urban environment. As mentioned by various authors, it is evident that better adapted cities, with caring and sensitized citizens, will allow disabled people more independence and an opportunity to maintain a good quality of life; socially, economically, and emotionally. The spatial processes of Chihuahua city inhibit people with disabilities, and the main solution to the problem is widening the visibility of said topic through urban planning and research centers focused on inclusion. Los estudios de las discapacidades son relevantes porque el espacio y los conceptos relacionados con la movilidad y la accesibilidad son importantes en la vida de las personas con discapacidad. Este trabajo desde la vertiente de la geografía urbana denuncia situaciones injustas de la población con discapacidad intelectual en su tránsito cotidiano por la ciudad de Chihuahua. Se partió desde un enfoque etno-espacial para explorar las experiencias de las personas con discapacidad. Considerando tres restricciones como son las de habilidades, de autoridad y de acoplamiento, así como la valoración de las barreras de accesibilidad. La separación espacial de la casa y el trabajo representa el principal obstáculo para las personas con discapacidad y se intensifica por las dificultades durante el desplazamiento debido a la inaccesibilidad del transporte público y las condiciones del entorno urbano. Como mencionan diversos autores es evidente que en ciudades mejor adaptadas y con ciudadanos más sensibilizados y solidarios muchos discapacitados pueden mantener una vida social, trabajar y ser independientes. Los procesos espaciales en la ciudad de Chihuahua deshabilitan a las personas con discapacidad, la principal recomendación es la visibilidad del tema mediante su incursión en la práctica de la planificación urbana y los centros de investigación. application/pdf text/html http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/8887 10.34096/rtt.i25.8887 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/8887/9802 http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/8887/9816 Derechos de autor 2021 Revista Transporte y Territorio Revista Transporte y Territorio; Núm. 25 (2021): Julio-Diciembre 1852-7175 Disability Urban Geography Daily mobility Chihuahua Discapacidades Geografía Urbana Movilidad Cotidiana Chihuahua Daily travels of people with moderate intellectual disabilities in Chihuahua City, Mexico Viajes cotidianos de las personas con discapacidad intelectual moderada en la ciudad de Chihuahua, México info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=transter&d=8887_oai |
