Health Care for Mothers and Young Children in Guatemala According
to the report analysis, this project was “especially suited to deal with
the problems Guatemala faces today. It combined the focus on basic health
care for mothers and small children with mobilization of communities
around improving nutrition, giving attention to children and practicing
preventive health care. Besides providing medical care, it promoted
capacity building among volunteers so as to disseminate efficient
practices that might improve the quality of life. Thus, it created a basis
to get more out of the insufficient resources available.” Three
relevant issues were targeted by this project: ·
health care for children under four years of age; ·
reproductive health attention for women;
