Subject field(s)
  • Baby and Child Care
CONT

Increasing the income in the hands of poor women through the expansion of employment opportunities is also associated with reduced child mortality and improved child health and nutrition.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Soins du bébé et puériculture
OBS

Bien qu'utilisé par l'ONU, l'UNICEF et l'OMS, le terme santé infantile peut porter à confusion puisqu'infantile renvoie à la première enfance (selon le petit Robert) tandis qu'enfant couvre une plus large période. À moins que "child" ne vise que cette première période (ce qui ne paraît pas le cas), il vaudrait mieux éviter infantile.

Spanish
