ABSTRACT

On the basis of Latin American and Mexican statistics, the need for family planning in those countries and the rapid

population growth which constitutes 1 of the main concerns of the government are discussed. Family planning

should be widespread and adopt different approaches, adapted to the social, cultural, and economic conditions of

the population, always respecting the dignity of the family. The demographic legislation of Mexico is analyzed, and

the need for integrated programs of health promotion, medical care, improvement of ed ucation and environmental

sanitation is emphasized. The close contacts between the pediatrician and the family and his role as a local leader

enable him to provide an an important contribution to the expansion of family planning, by providing expert advise and

assistance.(AUTHORS' MODIFIED) (PubHealth.info Document ID: CONT7T 3037-06)
