Source text - Spanish 36) La falta de estructura para absorber el intenso flujo poblacional también provocó un incremento en los índices de violencia. Según el Mapa de la Violencia de 2016 , Pernambuco alcanzó el puesto de 10º estado brasileño con mayor tasa de homicidios, estando muy por encima del promedio nacional. De acuerdo con el informe publicado, una de las justificaciones para el aumento de la criminalidad en localidades como Pernambuco fue el surgimiento de nuevos polos de desarrollo, como el CIPS . El Mapa de la Violencia señala, asimismo, al municipio de Cabo de Santo Agostinho, donde está instalada la mayor parte del emprendimiento, como el más violento de Pernambuco y el 49º de Brasil.
37) Ese aumento del índice de violencia afectó principalmente a mujeres, niños/as y adolescentes en los municipios de influencia del CIPS. La llegada de más de 40 mil hombres de diversas localidades del país para trabajar en las obras de instalación del emprendimiento provocó un significativo aumento de la prostitución, de la exploración sexual, de violaciones y de embarazos de niñas y adolescentes. Las implicaciones en la salud son también evidentes con el aumento de enfermedades sexualmente transmisibles y SIDA, además de la dependencia química generada por el uso de drogas y estupefacientes.
Translation - English 36. The lack of infrastructure to support the strong population influx has also contributed to an increase in violent crime. According to the 2016 Violence Map , Pernambuco rose to 10th place on the list of Brazilian states with highest levels of murder, well above the national average. According to the report, one of the reasons for the rise in criminality in regions like Pernambuco was the growth of new projects like the IPCG . Similarly, the Violence Map indicates that Cabo de Santo Agostinho, where the majority of the enterprise is located, is the most violent municipality in Pernambuco and 49th in Brazil.
37. This rise in violent crime has mainly affected women, children and teenagers in the areas under the influence of the IPCG. The arrival of more than 40,000 men from diverse regions looking to work on the IPCG’s construction projects has caused a spike in the levels of prostitution, rape and pregnancies in girls and teenage women. The health implications are also evident in the rise of sexually transmitted infections and AIDS and addiction brought about by drug and narcotic abuse.
