Abstract

The search for a fairer society has been an objective that has occupied an important place in the urban planning agendas. However, sociospatial reality reflects a set of injustices that materialize in a population group that ends up being forced to live in areas of the city devoid of opportunities for development. This article gives clues to think that the search for spatial justice is more related to the identification of existing potentials of a specific context, in this case the informal city, and not with the imposition of ideals of justice. In this sense, a research experience is presented that focuses on the use of photography as the main observation tool for habitability based on the perception of a group of children between 6 and 12 years old living in Bologna, settlement of informal origin, located in the town of Usme, Bogotá D.C.
