dc.description.abstractThis detailed paper outlines a successful integrated school nutrition model that was scaled up nation-wide in the Philippines. A capacity building program was implemented in order to train 58 school administrators in “Region IV.” A network of “Lighthouse” or sentinel schools was established and a guideline specifically for nutrition education was developed (Annex 1). The paper describes approaches for implementation and interventions that worked, and that can be replicated, monitored and evaluated. A legal mandate for the Department of Education (DepEd, Philippines) will help set up and facilitate mainstreaming and sustainability as well as ensuring sufficient allocation of human and other resources.en
