• Abstract: Background:Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a vector-borne disease that is widely distributed in most tropicalregions. Colombia has experienced an important increase in its incidence during the last decade. There are CLtransmission foci in the Colombian departments of Santander and Norte de Santander.Objectives:To identify environmental and socio-economic variables associated with CL incidence in the muni-cipalities of the northeast of Colombia between 2007 and 2016.Methods:This was an ecological study of CL cases aggregated by municipality. The cases reported during thestudy period were analyzed with a negative binomial regression to obtain the adjusted incident rate ratio forenvironmental and socio-economic variables.Findings:During the study period, 10 924 cases of CL were reported, and 110 (86.6%) municipalities reportedat least one CL case. The coverages of forest (aIRR 1.05, 95% CI 1.03–1.07), heterogeneous agricultural zones(aIRR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02–1.06) and permanent crops (aIRR 1.07, 95% CI 1.02–1.12) were associated with ahigher incidence of CL. Conversely, urban functionality (aIRR 0.95, 95% CI 0.92–0.96), minimal-altitude abovesea level (aIRR 0.84, 95% CI 0.79–0.90) and shrub coverage (aIRR 0.98, 95% CI 0.95–1.0) were negativelyassociated with the incidence of CL in the municipality.Main conclusions:Our results confirm the importance of environmental determinants, such as height abovesea level, and coverage of forest, permanent crops and heterogeneous agricultural zones, for the occurrenceof CL; thesefindings also suggest the importance of shrub coverage. Furthermore, urban functionality was asocio-economic determinant independently associated with CL incidence
