The Impact of Alcohol on Railway Families in Argentina

In this book, we have tried to use the experience acquired working with the railway family in a health education project that allows us to break with old paradigms, such as the idea that alcohol is part of the railway worker's culture and, therefore, its consumption cannot be modified. We learned the difference between alcohol consumption and an addiction, with all the elements that deteriorate the quality of life of the worker and his family group (family violence, increase in the rate of autism spectrum diseases, among others), recognizing the effect that advertising has on this type of socially accepted addictions. The results we share encourage us to offer this experience to other population groups that may benefit from the path we have followed, for which we are at your disposal for any consultation.
