"Kalamidad Paghandaan: Gutom at Malnutrisyon Agapan"
Different calamities were
coming every now and then. by those, many people’s houses and lives were
wasted. But we must know how to handle it to prevent such disaster that can
destroy one’s life.
When July comes, Nutrition Month was
celebrated for this is to remind us the month of eating nutritious foods not
only by this month but every day. The year's theme is "Kalamidad
Paghandaan: Gutom at Malnutrisyon Agapan".Does this theme ring a bell? Well
yes, because it was based on the typhoon Yolanda who made a big disaster here
in the Philippines were many Filipinos lives and casualties were lost. This is
to promote interventions to
address nutritional needs in emergencies and disasters
including preparedness, response and
recovery; mobilize respondents particularly the local nutrition
clusters and stakeholders to address gaps in nutrition in emergencies
response from national to barangay levels; and increase awareness among
families and individuals on coping and resiliency strategies to prevent
malnutrition and worsening of nutritional status in times of emergencies and
disasters.
Like what they say, Prevention
is better.
