The author investigates maternal mortality in Peru using data from the second Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES-II) carried out in 1991-1992. "The inclusion of a module about adult mortality in the questionnaire of the ENDES II [made it possible] to estimate maternal mortality using a set of questions about the sisters of the women interviewed. The study highlights the inverse relation between levels of maternal mortality and education, [especially] the relevance of formal education for decreasing the incidence of maternal mortality."
