A community-based approach to the promotion of breastfeeding in Mexico.

R Rodriguez-Garcia1, K J Aumack, A Ramos.   

Abstract

A comprehensive education strategy is presented that links training, community education, research, and mass-media efforts to enhance breastfeeding practices. Breastfeeding promotion models, an administrative system, and lessons learned during the project are described. The keys to effective breastfeeding promotion are shown to be accurate information; appropriate education, training, and follow-up; and a supportive administrative system.
