My parents encourage me. I have the right to play, dance, walk through this struggle and our elders, to change the lives of mankind. I know the reality, these rights will be my best weapon in the future. At my school sometimes do not find the materials, my parents work to get them. No crumbs cling bad government. "
Health promoters put particular emphasis on working in the existing need for more resources to the specific attention of women. The deaths of women in childbirth and complications before and after it, and cervical cancer were common before 1994, as reported promoters, because of lack of health care of women themselves, the lack of resources to reach hospitals and the poor care they received once there. Also explained how often people do not pay attention to the ailments of women, until they were very serious and there was no chance of being cured. In the women's traditional deliveries were attended by midwives, who usually did not have many means in case of difficulties. When a child was born the midwife charged less than the birth of a child as it was felt that the girl had less value. Much of the work of health promotion is to inform women about care before and after childbirth, and nutrition and sexual health. The promoters used in both traditional medicine and biomedical medicine within the reach of their resources. One of the women of Good Government in the region of Morelia speaks of the need for health promotion for women to have access to it is important that health has partners that they might not receive the treatment of pain to women.
