Specific Provision/s of the law
Section 2. Declaration of Policy. - The right to
health is a fundamental principle guaranteed by
the State. Section 15, Article II of the 1987
Constitution emphasizes that "The State shall
protect and promote the right to health of the
people and instill health consciousness among
them". Moreover, pursuant to various international
human rights instruments and agreements that the
State adheres to, the State guarantees the right to
adequate food, care and nutrition to pregnant and
lactating mothers, including adolescent girls,
women of reproductive age, and especially
children from zero (0) to two (2) years old.
Furthermore, the State commits to the Philippine
Development Plan and the national plans on
nutrition to contribute to the improvement of the
quality of human resource in the country, and the
reduction of maternal and child mortality and
stunting. The State declares its determination to
eliminate hunger and reduce all forms of
malnutrition. The State further maintains that
ensuring healthy lives, promoting well-being,
ending hunger and food insecurity, and achieving
good nutrition for all at all ages are essential to the
attainment of sustainable development. As such,
the State prioritizes nutrition for adolescent
females, pregnant and lactating women, infants
and young children, to be implemented in an
integrated manner by all branches of government,
using a whole-of-government approach in
collaboration with civil society organizations and
the private sector.
Towards this end, the State scales up nutrition
intervention programs in the first one thousand
(1,000) days of a child's life, and allocates
resources in a sustainable manner to improve the
nutritional status and to address the malnutrition
of infants and young children from zero (0) to two
(2) years old, adolescent females, pregnant and
lactating women, as well as to ensure growth and
development of infants and young children.
