title: [An information program on child health].
abstract: Description of a Programme started in 1979. Its aim is to deliver reliable, scientifically established and target-oriented information. It comprises two activities. a) The preparation and diffusion of documents, the Technical Reviews (TRs) adjusted to the needs of 4 groups of users: physicians and university level workers; primary care workers; policy makers; mass media specialists. The TRs deal with major child health problems. They are in French, English and Spanish and can be freely circulated, translated and reproduced. b) The organisation of joint health and mass media specialists meetings (five have been held: two in Africa, two in Asia and one in Latin America). The methods used to develop the Programme and its future are considered.
