Abstract: This article will
describe one of the Official Development Assisstance (ODA) programme which had
been introduced by the Japan International Cooperation Agency to increase the
health condition of mother and children in such areas in Indonesia. The
Maternal and Child Health (MCH) handbook programme had been undertaken for
about 10 years and has shown different results in many different areas in
Indonesia. This article will show the effect of the MCH handbook programme to
the mother’s child health behaviour in one village in Central Java (for
confidentiality, the name of village and informants used are pseudo names). The
Telogo Asri village was chosen because of their involvement in the MCH handbook
programme for about the last 9 years.
