Community Service on Healthy Eating for Children
December 1st, 2024 – General Santos
With the growing challenges of malnutrition and obesity, it is crucial to address dietary habits from an early age. Politeknik Piksi Ganesha is playing an active role in improving the health of children in the local community through a community service project focused on promoting healthy eating habits for children. This initiative is directly linked to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). SDG 2: Zero Hunger One of the key objectives of the project is to address issues related to undernutrition and overnutrition in children. By providing education on proper nutrition and healthy eating, the project helps reduce food insecurity and malnutrition, both of which are significant barriers to a child’s growth, learning, and overall well-being. Educating parents on the nutritional value of affordable foods also helps prevent hunger and provides children with the nourishment they need to thrive.
The initiative addresses pressing issues like hunger, childhood obesity, and unequal access to healthy food. It empowers families to make informed choices about their children’s health, ensuring a brighter future for the next generation.
