Green cities and the risk for vector-borne disease transmission for humans and animals: a scoping review

2025-04-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Greening cities is a nature-based strategy for sustainable urban development that integrates natural elements like plants or water bodies, to mitigate climate change impacts and enhance human well-being. However, urban green infrastructures (UGIs) can influence the distribution of disease vectors, potentially affecting vector-borne diseases (VBDs). UGIs may provide new suitable environments fo...
