The Province of Lanao del Norte is set to conduct a series of capacity building among newly appointed Barangay Nutrition Scholars for all its 22 municipalities.  An orientation on Nutrition in Emergencies will also be integrated in the training as part of their Provincial Nutrition Cluster’s NiEm initiatives.

Three batches of Basic Course for Barangay Nutrition Scholars will be conducted on May 13-15, May 27-29 and June 3-5, with Lala and Maigo as the training venues. The training is part of the commitments of the Province of Lanao del Norte in revitalizing and strengthening its nutrition programs, particularly the BNS Program, after undertaking a Local Nutrition Planning workshop in November 2014. Executive Order No. 9 series of 2014 was signed by Governor Khalid Q. Dimaporo organizing its Provincial Nutrition Cluster.

NNC X is assisting the Provincial Nutrition Committee in mobilizing trained facilitators from other provinces and cities for the said trainings.  srdc
