PROENZA RODRIGUEZ, Reinaldo; MARTINEZ ALVAREZ, Fidel Francisco; PIMENTEL BENITEZ, Héctor  y  MORAS BRACERO, Fidel de Jesús. Community work, social participation, and web of actors in the perception of genetic risk of fertile women. Rev Hum Med [online]. 2010, vol.10, n.3, pp.1-21. ISSN 1727-8120.

This paper deals with the importance of two national health care programs demanding integration of institutions and social organizations. The science-technology-society approach calls for social participation in decisions related to the control and social evaluation of development; at the same time, it is a civic right to keep watch over both the value and impact of techno-scientific activity. Success is achieved through research activities, community work, social participation, and web of actors, as well as educational interventions, promotion, and prevention.

Palabras clave : science, technology, society; genetics medical; social participation.
