Barangay Nutrition Scholars Convene in 3rd National Conference
Around 40,000 Barangay Nutrition Scholars Convene in 3rd National Conference last April 7 at Crowne Plaza Ortigas.NNC-DOH cites good practices, provides updates and skills development during the conference. They are not superheroes, but they are the ticket to well-nourished Filipinos in the barangays all over the country. They are the Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS). The information that I was able to gather during the intimate press con make me believe that there are people who cares beyond the call of duty. BNS are the frontliners in providing basic health and nutrition services in the communities. Once again, almost 4,000 BNSs across the archipelago are set to meet in a biennial national conference hosted by the National Nutrition Council (NNC) of the Department of Health (DOH) in partnership with the LuzViMin BNS Federation, Inc.
