We have being doing our part, we play an active role in the Food and Nutrition Security Commission, The Belize Parliamentary Alliance against Hunger and Malnutrition and the National School Feeding Committee. We address hunger and malnutrition with our national nutrition related activities coordinated by the Nutrition Unit.
We have introduced Incaparina (a fortified food packed with nutrients to support health and prevent malnutrition). We have been advocating for the use of naurally grown foods highlighting and sharing the nutrition and health benefits. We will continue to advocate and support the consumption of local healthy foods. We have also supported school feeding programs countrywide with nutritional education and food safety trainings.
Healthy food is key to developing a healthy nation. Healthy people means less burden on health systems which in turn leads to a healthier nation.
