By leveraging national policies such as the First 1000 Days Law, the Expanded Breastfeeding Promotion Law, the Universal Health Care Law, and the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition, the project strengthens local nutrition programs, promotes healthy practices, and mitigates the impact of disasters on child nutrition. It aims to improve children’s health outcomes and ensure sustainable access to proper nutrition across vulnerable communities.
