This year's focal theme is: "GUTOM AT MALNUTRISYON SAMA-SAMA NATING WAKASAN"
Gutom-which means a feeling of discomfort cause by lack of food and Malnutrisyon-is poor health caused by not having enough food or not enough of the right food.These two factors have greatly affected our nutritional status.
This theme implement that we must include planting vegetables, fruit-growing trees at school,day care center,community,hospital,parks,etc.We must also adapt some seminars and contests for more fun and excitement.
    This month also aims:
* to increase awareness on hunger issues and actions to mitigate hunger.
* encourage government agencies NGO's,Private sectors,civil communities-to contribute in addressing hunger issues and advocate strong political action to end hunger.
      Me as a student has a lot of responsibilities to contribute in our community.
So what am I suppose to do?
