The Barangay Nutrition Scholar (BNS) Program is a human resource development strategy of the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition, which involves the recruitment, training , deployment and supervision of volunteer nutrition workers or Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS).

Presidential Decree No. 1569 mandated the deployment of one BNS in every barangay in the country to monitor the nutritional status of the children and/or link communities with nutrition and related service providers. PD 1569 also mandated the NNC to administer the program in cooperation with local government units.

Thus, this Barangay Nutrition Scholar (BNS) Basic Course Training was conducted to be able to deliver nutrition and nutrition-related services to barangay, caring for the malnourished and nutritionally vulnerable, mobilizing the community and linkage building.

After the two-day live out training, the participants are now capacitated in terms of
knowledge , attitudes and skills in the following modules:

Module 1: The Barangay Nutrition Scholar (BNS) Program
Module 2: Basic Concept on Food and Nutrition
Module 3: Development Skills of BNS
