[In the Argentinian Republic, health education activities for and with the entire community]. / En la República Argentina, las acciones de educación para la salud para y con toda comunidad.

To be efficient, health education must be part of the economic social and cultural development of the target populations and must facilitate the interdisciplinary and multisectorial participation of the community. Argentina with its geographical immensity, heterogeneous cultural and socio-economic conditions, makes it necessary to establish health and educational structures adapted to each particular region. The Argentinian Committee for health education of the populations participates intensively in the training of health teams, volunteers and above all teachers. These represent the best distributed socio-professional category in the country, where they exert a strong influence on children and their family and contribute thus to the promotion of a healthy youth.
