Strengthening local actions to combat stunting!

Last April 29โ€“30, 2026, the Department of Health โ€“ Metro Manila Center for Health Development successfully conducted the "Enhancing Local Monitoring of Stunting Prevalence and Trends: A Capacity Building Workshop for LGUs" at Hortz Hotels and Resorts, Tagaytay City. The two-day workshop brought together Nutritionist Dietitians from various LGUs to enhance their skills in analyzing stunting data, identifying root causes, sharing best practices, and developing evidence-based strategies and action plans for stunting reduction.

Through interactive workshops, group discussions, and knowledge-sharing sessions, participants strengthened their capacity to monitor nutrition outcomes and implement targeted interventions. The activity highlighted the importance of strong governance, community engagement, the First 1,000 Days program, and multisectoral collaboration in achieving the shared goal of reducing stunting and improving the health and nutrition of children.

Inilunsad ng Department of Health โ€“ Metro Manila Center for Health Development (DOH-MMCHD) ang malawakang Ligtas Tigdas campaign sa National Capital Region (NCR) bilang bahagi ng pinaigting na hakbang ng pamahalaan upang maprotektahan ang mga bata laban sa sakit na Tigdas at Rubella.

Isinagawa ang paglulunsad ng kampanya ngayong ika-1 ng Hunyo, 2026 sa Muntinlupa City Sports Complex na dinaluhan ng mga ibaโ€™t ibang opisyal ng DOH, lokal na pamahalaan ng Muntinlupa, partner government agencies, at iba pang stakeholders.

Layunin ng kampanya na mabakunahan ang nasa 1,200,428 milyong bata na edad 06-59 buwan o wala pang limang taong gulang sa Metro Manila sa pamamagitan ng Supplemental Immunization Activity (SIA) na isasagawa sa mga itinakdang fixed at temporary fixed vaccination posts sa ibaโ€™t ibang lungsod at munisipalidad sa rehiyon.

Paliwanag ng DOH-MMCHD, ang kampanyang ito ay mahalagang hakbang upang mapataas muli ang immunity ng mga bata laban sa mga sakit na maiiwasan sa pamamagitan ng bakuna, lalo na sa patuloy na banta ng sakit na measles sa ilang lugar sa bansa.

โ€œHindi simpleng sakit ang tigdas. Maaari itong magdulot ng malubhang komplikasyon gaya ng pulmonya, pamamaga ng utak, pagkabulag, at maging kamatayan, lalo na sa mga batang hindi bakunado. Sa pamamagitan ng Ligtas Tigdas campaign, nais nating tiyakin na bawat batang Pilipino ay may sapat na proteksyon laban sa sakit na ito,โ€ pahayag ni DOH-MMCHD Regional Director Lester Tan.

Ipinaliwanag ng ahensya na ang mga pagbabakuna ay isinasagawa sa mga designated fixed posts gaya ng health centers, barangay vaccination sites, piling ospital, paaralan, at iba pang vaccination areas na itinakda ng mga lokal na pamahalaan upang maging mas accessible sa publiko ang serbisyo.

Bukod sa pagbabakuna, magbibigay din ng Vitamin A Supplementation at pinapaigting din ng DOH-MMCHD ang information drive at community engagement upang mahikayat ang mas maraming magulang na pabakunahan ang kanilang mga anak.
Nanawagan din ang DOH-MMCHD sa mga magulang at tagapag-alaga, lalo na sa mga nagdadalawang-isip pa ukol sa bakuna, na makiisa sa kampanya para sa kaligtasan ng kanilang mga anak at ng buong komunidad.

Hinimok din ang mga magulang na dalhin ang kanilang mga anak sa pinakamalapit na vaccination post sa oras na magsimula ang immunization activities sa kanilang lugar.

Patuloy namang tiniyak ng DOH-MMCHD na handa ang rehiyon sa implementasyon ng kampanya sa tulong ng mga local government units, healthcare workers, at partner agencies upang matiyak ang maayos, ligtas, at mabilis na pagbabakuna sa buong NCR.

Last April 10, 2026, the Department of Health โ€“ Metro Manila Center for Health Development (DOH-MMCHD) successfully conducted the Nutrition Program Coordinative Meeting at Manila Grand Opera Hotel, gathering LGU Nutrition Program Coordinators to discuss key updates, challenges, and strategic directions for the continuous strengthening of nutrition programs across Metro Manila.

The meeting served as an avenue to assess program implementation, share good practices, and address concerns related to nutrition services and interventions. Among the highlights discussed were Nutrition Program and FHSIS updates, findings from Supportive Supervision and facility monitoring, Ligtas Tigdas Vitamin A Supplementation, Logistics and commodities management, and planned nutrition-related activities for CY 2026.

Through strengthened coordination and collaborative planning, DOH-MMCHD and partner LGUs remain committed to improving nutrition outcomes and ensuring accessible, evidence-based nutrition services for every Filipino family.
