Acompañamiento a madres adolescentes en proceso de gestación, parto y lactancia: una esperanza de vida en Cazucá; comuna cuatro del municipio de Soacha

Abstract

The present work is carried out with the purpose of recognizing the existing relationship between human development and the family and institutional accompaniment processes necessary to increase the quality of life of adolescent mothers in pregnancy and postpartum processes in sectors of high socioeconomic vulnerability. This is a descriptive research that used the semi-structured interview with open questions as a method of data collection in a study population of 12 adolescent girls between 13 and 16 years old. The conceptual and theoretical basis of the research focuses, first, on basic concepts of human development, on the theory of the needs of Abraham Maslow and on the approach of the role of human development in society as a process of expansion of the real freedoms of Amartya Sen. Additionally, the work is based on key concepts such as accompaniment in pregnancy and lactation processes from a socio-affective perspective and in the adolescent life cycle.
