“…Regarding the types of populations studied in the articles (see second graph, Figure 3 ), accessibility for the older people is found to a greater extent, with 45% ( n = 25). This group analyses where the most significant architectural barriers are found inside the dwellings preventing the older people from carrying out their daily activities without problems [ 43 , 44 , 45 , 48 , 53 , 55 , 58 , 65 , 67 , 68 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 90 , 91 , 96 , 97 , 98 ].…”

Accessibility to housing is crucial for people with disabilities as it provides them with equal opportunities and allows them to live independently. A systematic literature review has been conducted to understand the current research on accessibility in housing for people with disabilities in Latin America. The study analysed 56 papers and used co-word analysis to identify common themes and topics within the documents. The results of the analysis showed that Brazil (61%) is the country with the most research on the subject, physical disability, at 36%, is the impairment most analysed, and interventions or analysis for the elderly (45%) in their homes is the most researched type of population. The co-word analysis revealed that topics such as policy, regulations, the use of technologies, ergonomics interventions, and architectural criteria or barriers to the daily life of disabled people were frequently discussed in the papers. Although this work shows a substantial and growing increase in research on housing for people with disabilities in Latin America, it also demonstrates the importance of increasing research on other types of impairment, such as visual and cognitive-intellectual disabilities, and including children, caregivers, or even young adults.

“…Regarding older people, some research examples include the research of Leung et al (31) who studied the relationship between the indoor components of private housing and the quality of life of the elderly, and the research of Gracia and Olivera -Pueyo (32), who analyzed architectural barriers in community areas in the homes for elderly with hip fracture. Furthermore, some studies examined accessibility related to other disability situations.…”

“…The authors concluded that in that case, it is more appropriate to adapt the existing house of the person with a disability than design a new wheelchair-accessible house, as relocation can lead to isolating people from their existing social networks. While these studies deal with housing accessibility, they are mainly focused on assessing perception (34) or only one type of housing (32).…”

El presente estudio propone una herramienta para evaluar la accesibilidad universal al interior de viviendas, presentando un novedoso modelo cuantitativo para evaluar la accesibilidad de edificios para compradores o arrendatarios. Para ello se emplea un análisis multicriterio que reagrupa indicadores con diferentes unidades y escalas utilizando un único grado de accesibilidad para cuatro principales pilares: Autonomía, Movilidad, Confort y Seguridad. El método de evaluación fue aplicado en 35 departamentos en venta en el casco urbano de Santiago de Chile. Este trabajo muestra la aplicación y resultados de 4 departamentos. Los resultados de la evaluación se presentan de forma visual con un gráfico de barras circulares y una calificación final en escala de letras de la F a la A. En general, se observa que los cuatro departamentos tienen un bajo grado de accesibilidad (letra F a la D). Y el pilar de Autonomía es claramente el pilar más bajo de los departamentos seleccionados.
