dc.description.abstractThis study examines the disparities in green space access and quality between two districts in Lima, Peru: Santiago de Surco, characterized by organized urban planning and substantial green infrastructure, and Villa María del Triunfo, which faces challenges due to informal growth and limited public investment. Through a mixed-method approach—including spatial analysis, field observations, and resident interviews—the research identifies critical inequities in green area distribution, infrastructure quality, and safety. Findings reveal that while Surco benefits from well-maintained parks and equitable green space allocation, Villa María del Triunfo struggles with underutilized, poorly maintained parks and minimal recreational infrastructure, exacerbating social and environmental vulnerabilities. This study highlights the urgent need for inclusive urban policies that prioritize green space revitalization in underprivileged areas. Recommendations include enhancing existing parks with basic amenities and promote urban green spaces in low socioeconomic districts of Lima. The research contributes to advancing equitable urban development practices and underscores the role of green spaces in promoting environmental justice and well-being in rapidly urbanizing contexts.en_US
