NUTRITION MONTH

In July 2025, the Philippines celebrates Nutrition Month under the inspiring theme “Sa PPAN: Sama‑sama sa Nutrisyong Sapat Para sa Lahat!”—emphasizing collective action (“togetherness”) under the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition (PPAN) to guarantee sufficient nutrition as a universal right. Spearheaded by the National Nutrition Council, this year’s observance underscores the importance of food and nutrition security—promoting affordable, safe, and nutritious diets for every Filipino. Across the country, local governments, schools, and communities host events like cooking contests, food garden projects, and nutrition seminars to raise awareness, foster healthy eating habits, and strengthen policy support for nutritional well-being from the grassroots up.
