The general objective of this paper is to regionalizeArgentina according to health, education, demographic andeconomic variables; all of them found in the developmentof this work. It is a descriptive and correlational study withcross-sectional design.
Four different groups of provinces spring from the regionalization of Argentina. Comparing development to infant mortality we can say that these regions do not show homogeneity and that it is necessary, first of all, to address three main topics for an equitable development, as the work showed. First, increase health expenditure in the provinces with greater infant mortality; second family planning programs; and finally strong emphasis on mother education.
