Impact of huge highways in the jungle
This report describes a five-year interdisciplinary study, co-financed by the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI), on the environmental and public health impacts of the Peru-Brazil Inter-Oceanic Highway. The research highlights how the highway's construction has altered land use and rodent population dynamics, increasing the risk of zoonotic disease transmission to local human populations in Southeast Peru.
