RESTOREID | Restoring Ecosystems to Stop the Threat Of Re – Emerging Infectious Disease 

Goals

According to the World Health Organization, spillover of pathogens from animals to humans (zoonotic spillover) is the predominant cause of emerging infectious diseases and the primary cause of recent pandemics. A growing number of studies has linked zoonotic spillover risk to human-induced landscape degradation. Therefore, a logical solution could be restoration. However, it is not clear by what mechanisms restoration could protect against spillover, the spatiotemporal scales necessary, the type of restoration needed, or the potential effects on how humans interact with the environment and if that could increase zoonotic spillover risk. The EU-funded RESTOREID project will investigate how restoration could impact wildlife disease and emergent spillover risk.ue todos juntos implementem e monitorizem, num esforço de cooperação entre instituição com olhares e conhecimentos distintos, tendo por objetivo final melhorar a educação e a experiência de aprendizagem de todos os alunos.
