La crisis climática intensifica el dengue y las enfermedades diarreicas en territorios amazónicos con déficits estructurales en agua, saneamiento y servicios de salud, especialmente en contextos de frontera

The document identifies that health vulnerability in the Peruvian Amazon is multidimensional, driven by social, environmental, and institutional factors. It highlights that the climate crisis exacerbates existing risks, particularly for pregnant women, children, and the elderly, while structural failures in water, sanitation, and waste management are critical drivers of disease transmission. To address this, the project developed a Multidimensional Vulnerability Index (IVM) and territorial maps to inform intersectoral action plans and community-led prevention strategies, emphasizing the importance of youth participation and cross-border cooperation in border regions.

• Health vulnerability in the studied regions is multidimensional, encompassing social, environmental, and institutional factors, with the climate crisis intensifying existing risks.
• The transmission of dengue and diarrheal diseases is primarily driven by a lack of safe water, sanitation, and waste management, with pregnant women, children, and the elderly being the most affected groups.
• Effective health adaptation requires intersectoral and territorial responses, where local actions in border areas generate regional impacts and community/youth participation ensures sustainability.
