Action for Nutrition, which involves the recruitment, training , deployment and supervision of volunteer
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.
