What is Infraestructura?

The term 'Infraestructura' (Spanish for 'Infrastructure') broadly refers to the basic physical and organizational structures and facilities needed for the operation of a society or enterprise. This can encompass various elements, including transportation (roads, bridges, railways, airports), energy (power grids, pipelines), communication (telecommunications networks), water and sanitation systems, and buildings (schools, hospitals, housing). Infrastructure enables economic activity, supports social services, and contributes to overall quality of life. It is commonly used in the context of planning, development, and management of resources related to these fundamental systems.
