CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, Pampanga (PIA) — National Nutrition Council (NNC) invites tertiary students in Central Luzon to join its first-ever film making competition.
NNC 3 Regional Nutrition Program Coordinator Ana Maria Rosaldo said this is part of the celebration of the 48th Nutrition Month, which carries the theme “New normal na Nutrisyon, Sama-samang gawan ng Solusyon”.
“Through this film making contest, the youth will be given an opportunity to express their creativity and share their stories in nutrition using visual arts. At the same time, they can use this to raise awareness and educate their fellow youth and the public towards a better nutrition situation in the country and in the new normal setting,” she said.
The contest is open to all students enrolled in tertiary level in educational institutions located in Central Luzon.
“Each team must be composed of five to 15 members including the production team, and must be from the same school or organization.
