Organizations such as the United Nations Children's Fund and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) have agreed that:
 "... The school infrastructure, among other factors, facilitates the learning processes, if they are considered elements such as recreation areas, open spaces for individual and group activities, conservation of the environment, as well as classrooms Flexible Multi-purpose "...
