• Abstract:

  The research project will address the evaluation and importance of architectural accessibility in educational spaces, focusing on children with motor disabilities in elementary schools in the center of Paraiso, Tabasco. Through a detailed analysis of the regulations and laws on inclusive design and the right to education in children with disabilities.
  The research study indicates that accessibility not only implies the elimination of architectural obstacles, but also the creation of an environment that promotes autonomy and inclusion. Through direct observations, surveys to educators and interviews to students with motor disabilities, it was possible to identify the main difficulties faced by children in the facilities, such as stairs without ramps, bathrooms and classrooms without adaptations.
  Finally, the importance of inclusion in educational institutions is highlighted, promoting awareness, seeking to contribute to a more accessible and equitable school environment, where all children, regardless of their abilities, can exercise their right to education and develop to the fullest.
