This project builds on a current FAPESP project ResNexus (Resilience and vulnerability at the urban Nexus) to (a) quantify the espaciotemporal relations ships between urbanization and health, epidemiological transition in peri-urban-communities of low socio-economic. Urbanization has serious consequences for population is now living in cities, which are increase singly, faced with the tri…
The provisioning of food, water and energy services in urban areas involves infrastructures and resource flows which are heavily dependent on each other and on the natural environment.
