Tabuelan, Cebu — The National Nutrition Council Region VII (NNC 7) conducted a workshop on the formulation of the Barangay Nutrition Action Plan (BNAP) for 2026–2028 in the municipality of Tabuelan, Cebu on 25-27 June 2025 at the Municipality of Tabuelan. A total of 37 participants. The activity was facilitated by Nutrition Officer II Mhea Sigourney O. Lofranco and Nutritionist-Dietitian II Eliza Zuza M. Aballe of the DO CV CHD, with the active participation of members of the Barangay Nutrition Committees (BNCs).
The activity aimed to guide the BNCs in formulating a comprehensive three-year nutrition action plan that will serve as a roadmap for addressing priority nutrition concerns at the barangay level.
The formulation of the BNAP was anchored on the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Memorandum Circular No. 2024-051, ensuring alignment with national policies and priorities. In particular, the action plans were developed following the four pillars of the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition 2023-2028 outlined in the memorandum, providing a structured and strategic approach to nutrition planning and implementation.
NNC 7 continues to support local government units in strengthening its local nutrition planning and implementation, recognizing the vital role of barangay-level initiatives in achieving improved nutrition outcomes for all. // NO II Mhea Sigourney O. Lofranco, RND
