 III. NUTRITION SITUATION ANALYSIS
The development of barangay _______continues to be challenged by the serious malnutrition
situation prevailing among the population. In particular, the barangay continues to face persistent
problems of undernutrition, stunting, wasting, overweight/obesity and specific micronutrient
deficiencies that seriously affect children and mothers.

The barangay nutrition committee of_______ continue to assess, monitor, and to seek adequate
responses to the alarming situation.

Definitions of Undernutrition, Stunting, Wasting, Overnutrition

Undernutrition is a condition which captures both past and present nutritional status. It is the
result of eating an inadequate quantity of food over an extended period of time. Undernutrition
impairs the physical function of an individual to the point where he or she can no longer
maintain an adequate level of growth. Most vulnerable to undernutrition are the young children
and pregnant mothers.

Stunting/ Underheight is a condition in which the child’s height is less than expected for his/her
age (underheight-for-age). It reflects chronic undernutrition or past nutritional status caused by
prolonged inadequate intake, recurrence of illness, or improper feeding practices.

Wasting/thinness is a condition in which the weight of the child is less than expected for his/her
height (underweight-for-height). Wasting occurs with acute food deprivation or presence of
illness such as infection, or a combination of food lack and illness in the immediate past
nutritional status.

Overnutrition is an imbalanced nutritional status resulting from excessive intake of nutrients.

Generally, overnutrition generates an energy imbalance between food consumption and energy
expenditure leading to disorders such as obesity.

Status of Malnutrition – may also refer to the following guide questions to further explain
nutrition situation.

The First 1,000 Days

Malnutrition and its causes in ________ may be best understood by first looking at the first one
thousand (1000) days or the period of pregnancy to the first two years of life. Studies point out
that proper care and services such as ante-natal care, birthing, postnatal care, breastfeeding, and
the adequate feeding and care for 6-23 month-old children are critical to the prevention and
reduction of stunting and other forms of malnutrition.

The various forms of malnutrition in Brgy. __________ persist as serious public health issues,
despite efforts to improve the nutrition status of the population. The municipality of Sta.Fe has
undertaken to implement key interventions, foremost among which is the national government’s
First One Thousand Days Program. The table below presents selected indicators of care and
services considered vital for proper health and nutrition of pregnant/lactating mothers and their
newborns/ infants during this most critical period from gestation to first twenty-four months of
life. The table shows the utilization of programs and services that impact on mother and infant
nutrition in the municipality .

The barangay’s performance indicators are coherent with municipal results. Nevertheless,
implementation coverage shows much room for improvement to reach DOH target coverages –
especially if the goal is to reach the most vulnerable and at-risk mothers and children.

Infants aged 6-8 months received solid foods
Breastfeeding with complementary Feeding of
6-11 months
Breastfeeding with complementary Feeding of

Under the First 1,000 Days, interventions start with ensuring that a pregnant woman is ready for
motherhood and able to give birth to a healthy child.

The next crucial stage in a child’s nutritional care is its first two years of life. It is at this stage
that stunting can be prevented and mitigated, as thereafter it becomes irreversible. Various
interventions and health programs for the newborn and the young child are made available and
accessible. These include exclusive breastfeeding, infant immunization, complementary feeding,
micronutrient supplementation, and proper hygiene.

The following scenario of stunting merits consideration:

 Stunting (or normal growth) in children occur during the first 1000 days of life (period
from pregnancy up to the first two years of the child). After 2 years of age stunting is
irreversible

 The brain of a stunted child has 40 percent less brain matter than that of a normal, never-
ever stunted child. The temporal lobe is affected significantly in the brain of the stunted
child. The temporal lobe which is responsible for perception and comprehension,
memory and language, is compromised.

 When stunting is not prevented in the first one thousand days, it persists/continues to
pre-school and school age, manifesting in other forms of malnutrition that follow, such
as wasting, underweight, overweight and obesity in later years.

 Stunted growth in early life increases the risk of overweight later in life. By preventing
stunting and promoting linear growth and preventing excessive weight gain in young
children, the risk of excessive weight gain and non-communicable diseases in adulthood
can be reduced.

CONCLUSION

Malnutrition in Brgy._________ is a critical problem intertwined with the development of the

local government unit of _____. Improving programs around the first 1000 days seems most
logical and intelligent use of additional resources given already existing programs to work from;
adjustments in the preschool and school nutrition program is also feasible as they require
20
 relatively incremental local investments. While a recent study, “Assessment of the Nutrition
Governance for Maternal and Young Child Nutrition Security” observed that many of the Local
Nutrition Action Plans are not integrated in the Annual Investment Plan of the LGUs, the
strengthening of the enabling environment will require closer support and resources from the
provincial government, municipal nutrition committee and barangay nutrition committee
especially in local government mobilization. The introduction of nutrition sensitive programs in
existing economic and livelihood as well as infrastructure projects to short-cut the trickle-down
approach is a must be given the poverty linked to malnutrition.

The Brgy Nutrition Action Plan (BNAP) 2023-2025 of _______ was formulated in full
recognition of these nutritional problems and their dimensions. The BNAP defines targeted
outcomes and sub-outcomes in terms of key nutrition indicators. It identifies programs and
projects that will be pursued to achieve these targets.

IV. OUTCOME TARGETS

The Barangay_____________ Nutrition Action Plan 2023-2025 is aligned with the over-all
vision of the Municipality of Sta. Fe. The BNAP also supports the goals of the Municipal
Nutrition Action Plan, Regional Plan of Action for Nutrition for Region VIII and the Philippine
Plan of Action for Nutrition 2023-2028 to improve the nutrition situation of the country as a
contribution to: (1) the achievement of Ambisyon Natin 20401, (2) reducing inequality in human
development outcomes, and (3) reducing child and maternal mortality.

Key Strategies to Achieve BNAP 2025 Targets

To achieve the 2025 outcome targets, the following key strategies will be implemented:
1. Focus on the first 1000 days of life. The first 1000 days of life refer to the period of
pregnancy up to the first two years of the child. The LNAP will ensure that key health,
nutrition, early education and related services are delivered to ensure the optimum
physical and mental development of the child during this period.

2. Complementation of nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive programs. The

regional planners ensured that there is a good mix of nutrition-specific and nutrition-
sensitive interventions in the LNAP. Nutrition-specific interventions “address the
immediate determinants2 of fetal and child nutrition and development”. Nutrition-
sensitive interventions, on the other hand, were identified in order to address the
underlying determinants of malnutrition (inadequate access to food, inadequate care for
women and children, and insufficient health services and unhealthy environment).

3. Intensified mobilization of local government units. Mobilization of LGUs will aim to

transform low-intensity nutrition programs to those that will deliver targeted nutritional
outcomes.

4. Complementation of actions of national, sub-national and local governments. As

LGUs are charged with the delivery of services, including those related to nutrition, the
national and sub-national government creates the enabling environment through
appropriate policies and continuous capacity building of various stakeholders. This
twinning of various reinforcing projects in the LNAP will provide cushion for securing
outcomes in case of a shortfall/ gaps in the implementation of one of the program.

2
Immediate determinants include adequate food intake and nutrient intake, care giving and parenting practices, and low burden of infectious
diseases. (Executive Summary of the Lancet Maternal and Child Nutrition Series, 2013).

X. MONITORING AND EVALUATION SCHEME

The overall implementation plan is the reference document for designing the monitoring system
including annual program implementation reviews and the end-of-plan evaluation.

As a management tool, the management meetings, semestral and quarterly reporting of the
Barangay Nutrition Committee will be used as a platform for LGU monitoring of the LNAP.
While the report is important, it is the discussion at the BNC that is more vital in terms of
ensuring that corrections/revisions/improvements/enhancement are undertaken by individual
sectors and the BNC in response to the emerging issues and problems in implementation. The
management decision in the quarterly meetings will guide the Municipal Nutrition Committee in
following up LNAP implementation.

At the end of each year, the BNC will convene an annual Program Implementation Review
(PIR) which is conducted every last quarter of the year. This will allow BNC member agencies
to integrate revisions to the program/s for the coming budget year. The PIR, benefiting from
initial annual progress reports from the sectors, undertakes a rigorous and reflective analysis of
the experience in the implementation for the year to design improvements in the Plan for the
following year. In the course of the implementation year, the Barangay Nutrition Scholar will
collect important nuggets of lessons that can guide the planning for the coming year in addition
to what will be brought by the BNCs in the PIR.
