ORMOC CITY – The Harmonised Initiatives of Media for the Spread of Good Nutrition in Region 8 (HIMSoG-8), the media-group partner of National Nutrition Council in Eastern Visayas, will coordinate first with the Mayor’s Office in local government units (LGUs) in its targeting for the Media-Nutrition Caravans for year 2019.
This came was consensus of the membership during a Program Implementation Review (PIR) of the group held on December 21, 2018 at the Sabin Resort Hotel, here. The one-day event headed by HIMSoG President Antonio Pueblos extended as well as 4th Quarter Meeting, 8th Anniversary and Christmas Party.
Every Year HIMSoG-8 conducts two Media-Nutrition Caravans to a chosen cluster of at least three localities in Region 8 that are noted for high incidence of malnutrition, and also with those outstanding good practices on nutrition program implementation. The caravan is a most favoured group activity, to first-hand seek out the rationale of the Nutrition Situation of the target locality--why it is lagging in health and nutrition. The practice is as well a measure to document the good practices of the localities which are doing well for other places to emulate.
