Abstract

This two-page issue of the newsletter focuses on men’s barriers to being helpful in birth spacing and antenatal care. Local bylaws could foster more attendance at clinics, as well as support for community health workers in providing information about care-giving to men. Links are provided to articles, reports and research studies. Communities that are more involved in the research are more likely to show lasting change in women and children’s health.
