Modelo de vivienda para la ruralidad en el municipio de Chipaque, Cundinamarca. La vivienda sostenible como medio integrador con la agricultura

Abstract

The municipality of Chipaque is located in the eastern province of the department of Cundinamarca, 27 km from the city of Bogotá, on the Bogotá - Villavicencio road. From the economic dimension, the municipality reflects a mostly agricultural economy given the activities that are directly related to the rural sector, with agricultural crops such as potatoes, aromatic herbs, onions, carrots, cilantro, among others in less density, which demonstrates a traditional agricultural culture. On the other hand, from the socio-cultural dimension more emphasized in the habitat sector, the rural housing is located within a natural environment, where two factors prevail, the built and the unbuilt, the first where the spaces involve the family group, their intra-family and social relations, and the second represents the agricultural activities, the means of daily sustenance for these families. In these two areas: built and unbuilt (economic dimension and socio-cultural dimension), there is a low quality of life of the rural population, given that there is no adequate individual and collective management, which is why it is proposed to design a rural housing model according to their geographical and climatic conditions that meets the minimum needs of habitability and comfort to improve the quality of life of the population, taking into account their productive life.
