Nutrition Officers Orientation held at Dietary VIP Room| August 29, 2025

Alhamdulillah! Through the initiative and effort of MOH-BARMM, 10 additional Nutrition Officers have been deployed to Sulu IPHO to strengthen the workforce focusing on nutrition programs.

The orientation was graced by Ma’am Nadzma Paradji, RND, MPA, National Immunization Program Coordinator and consultant on nutrition programs. The scope of the nutrition program was presented by Ms. Ummu Karzum Bakil, RND, Assistant Nutrition Coordinator. Meanwhile, Ms. Fatma Angkayah, RM, BSM, Nutrition Coordinator, discussed the roles, responsibilities, and deliverables of the Nutrition Officers to ensure clarity in their tasks on the ground.

Although these newly assigned Nutrition Officers are already serving as volunteers and are familiar with nutrition service delivery, the orientation provided an opportunity to emphasize important key points on PIMAM (Philippine Integrated Management of Acute Malnutrition), IYCF (Infant and Young Child Feeding), and CGS (Community Growth Standards).

With this additional manpower, In Shaa Allah, the challenges in nutrition service delivery will be gradually addressed.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to MOH-BARMM, under the leadership of Dr. Kadil Sinolinding, and to our Nutrition Division Chief, Ma’am Celia Sagaral, for their continuous support and commitment to improving nutrition in the region.

🌱 Fuel for growth.
⭐ Liquid gold.
💫 A mother’s magic touch.

Breastfeeding is nature’s perfect recipe—easy to digest, packed with essential nutrients, and rich in immunity-boosting antibodies. It's a living, dynamic source of nourishment that evolves to meet a baby's unique needs at every stage.

And let’s not forget: breastfeeding benefits moms, too! Let's continue to support and champion and the incredible women who make it possible! 🤱💪❤️

Nagsimula sa purees at mashed, tumuloy ng chopped o maliliit na gayat hanggang sa tumuntong sa katamtamang laki at hiwa ng pagkain…
ay ang bilis talaga ng malusog na paglaki ni baby! 🥹

Kasabay ng mabilis na development ni baby ay ang pagbabago ng consistency ng mga complementary foods na sa kanya’y pwedeng ipakain.

𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗲𝘀 na maaari ninyong gawin? Ito na at pwede niyo nang sundin.

Training of Trainers on Data Quality Check on Field Health Services Information System(FHSIS) and Operation Timbang (OPT) Plus on August 18-22, 2025 at Cotabato City.

The recent training conducted under the Philippine Multisectoral Nutrition Project (PMNP) focused on enhancing the quality of data related to maternal and child health indicators from the Family Health Service Information System (FHSIS) and Operation Timbang Plus. The primary goal is to ensure that effective interventions are provided to target populations, particularly pregnant and lactating mothers, as well as children under five.
Participants included staff from the Ministry of Health (MOH) Nutrition Division, UNICEF, and various provincial health offices from Lanao Del Sur, Maguindanao, and Sulu. The training was exceptionally productive, as it went beyond mere data recording and reporting; it equipped participants with the skills to accurately calibrate and verify anthropometric tools, such as weighing scales and height boards.
This capacity-building initiative, along with the technical assistance offered in PMNP areas, aims to effectively address the pressing nutrition problems faced by these communities.
A special thanks to NPMO, UNICEF, Action Against Hunger (AAH), and the Ministry of Health BARMM for their invaluable support in this endeavor. Together, we hope to make significant strides in improving maternal and child nutrition in the region.
