    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Posgrado, Maestría en Antropología y medios digitales, 2018-08) Malisa López, Bettsi Adriana; Viteri Torres, Walter Francisco
    This report addresses humanized childbirth and its relationship with traditional ancestral medicine in Ecuador and therefore in the rural communities of the Sierra, where most cultures and rituals have been degraded throughout history, is an opportunity to highlighting an anthropological vision of the way in which pregnancy and childbirth are carried out in the communities of the Salcedo canton, under a quantitative qualitative methodology that allows maintaining a positivist logical epistemology, recognizing the interculturality and variety of scenarios in which the investigation. The conclusions determine a valuation of intercultural birth, the identification and legalization of midwives who play an important role in the birth and post-partum pregnancy of indigenous and mestizo women. Set vinculatorias strategies and promotion programs conferences, lectures both medical staff with representatives of ancestral cultures, campaigns to eliminate obstetric violence means an important contribution to communities and women are claimed, and then delete the segregation of culture. Traditional medicine is very rich in terms of ancestral knowledge, alternative therapies and knowledge to help improve conditions and optimally recover the woman who has had a natural birth, giving opportunity for the direct approach of the mother and the newborn and the support of couple and relatives. Childbirth is treated as a natural process and not as a highly medicated event, recognizing the need to return to customs and traditions.
