30 June 2021, Cagayan de Oro City – During its 126th Full Council Meeting last 24 June 2021, the Regional Development Council (RDC) X approved RDC Resolution No. 45, series of 2021 entitled “Supporting the 2021 July Nutrition Month Celebration”.
All RDC X members, local government units, and concerned stakeholders are enjoined to observe the campaign themed “Malnutrisyon patuloy na labanan, First 1000 Days tutukan!”
