The Children´s Crusade for a Mexico without asthma was born when we found that approximately 23 million people in our country use firewood for activities such as cooking food, lighting or heating.

 

The traditional use of firewood poses significant health risks to families; contamination inside homes and respiratory diseases such as asthma in both adults and children.

MAIN CONDITIONS:

• Acute respiratory infections.
• Chronic bronchitis and chronic bronchial obstruction.
• Low birth weight and perinatal disorders.
• Lung and nasopharyngeal cancer.
• Pulmonary fibrosis.
• Asthma.
