CIDHAL's activities are carried out through its alternative health service areas and its documentation and communications centre. Specific projects include Maternity without Risks Project, Midwives Project, Youth to Youth Project, Attention to Cases of Violence Project, Creation of a Participative Model of Defense to Face the Negative Effects of Globalization Project, and the High School Project (in its initial stages).

CIDHAL also produces two weekly radio programmes: "Mujer que sabe Latín" (Women Who Know Latin) and "Mujeres Caminemos Juntas" (Women Let's Walk Together). In addition, it disseminates a weekly supplement in the local press called "Mujeres Caminemos Juntas" (Women Let's Walk Together), also available on the Internet (CIDHAL site). It offers workshops to women and men who work in the media for the purpose of creating a network through which information on women's health, reproduction rights, violence against women, and other issues relating to women's empowerment will have a permanent place in the media.
