"Nutrisyon at Kalikasan, Ating Pangalagaan"
The Rural Health Unit of Parang successfully concluded the 52nd Nutrition Month Celebration through a meaningful culminating activity held at the SB Hall, Iranun Palace. The event gathered teenage pregnant women, senior citizens, lactating mothers, and representatives from the different Barangay Local Government Units in support of this year's Nutrition Month theme, "Nutrisyon at Kalikasan, Ating Pangalagaan."
The celebration highlighted the importance of proper nutrition and environmental stewardship in achieving healthier and more resilient communities. It also served as a venue to strengthen community awareness and encourage active participation in nutrition-related programs across all sectors.
The success of this activity was made possible through the unwavering support of the ๐๐จ๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ง๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐ง๐ข๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ , under the leadership of ๐๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ซ๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐๐ฒ๐จ๐ซ ๐๐๐ก๐๐ซ ๐. ๐๐๐๐ฒ, who reaffirmed the municipality's commitment to sustaining nutrition initiatives and improving the health and well-being of every Parangeรฑo.
A key highlight of the program was the promotion of the First 1,000 Days initiative, emphasizing that proper nutrition begins during pregnancy and continues throughout a child's first two years of lifeโa critical period for optimal growth, development, and lifelong health.
