Estructura de indicadores de habitabilidad del espacio público en ciudades latinoamericanas

Based on a documentary review, this paper presents the existing indicators that evaluate the quality of public space in several cities around the world, including those cities in Latin America that have been recognized for their achievements regarding these spaces. An organizational structure of the indicators is proposed based on the role of public space in order to facilitate its management by different competent entities and to design it as a habitable space. The suggested structure for the organization of indicators is based on the functions and physical conditions that public space must have in order to be habitable. The paper offers a documentary exploration of indicators that measure the quality of life in cities, particularly in their public spaces, based on academic and technical proposals used by different international organizations and government institutions that manage these cities. It also analyzes the importance given to these indicators by different administrative entities, and finally proposes a structure that seeks to organize the existing indicators, while including some new ones, to facilitate the management of public spaces.
