Abstract
Accessibility to education and health services emerges as a matter of crucial importance for the overall well-being of the population, particularly for the female subpopulation. While it is essential to have services that encompass the entire population, their location is equally critical. These services must be easily accessible, situated at a reasonable distance to ensure that emergency access is viable and that education does not become a daily sacrifice.
The availability of an approach that provides us with information on distance is a significant step towards improving accessibility to education and health services for the population. This approach not only allows us to understand the distance and time required by women in Mexico to travel from their homes to crucial service centers but also lays the groundwork for a comprehensive analysis. The analysis will focus on the precise identification of the coverage of these centers, highlighting those of special importance to women. Measurement is carried out considering the volume of the population of interest and the maximum acceptable time for travel.
Presenting these results on a poster will not only provide a clear and effective visualization of the gathered information but will also facilitate the communication of crucial findings. This analysis has the potential to inform and guide strategic decisions to improve accessibility and address existing barriers, thereby contributing to the well-being and equal opportunities for the vulnerable female population in the context of essential services.
