El jefe de la BGN insta a utilizar suministros locales para el programa de nutrición gratuita

El jefe de la Agencia Nacional de Nutrición, Dadan Hindayana, subrayó que el programa de Comidas Nutritivas Gratuitas debe priorizar los productos alimentarios locales. La medida tiene como objetivo apoyar las economías locales en las regiones.

Dadan Hindayana dio instrucciones a todas las Unidades de Servicio de Cumplimiento Nutricional para que prioricen el suministro de huevos y alimentos provenientes de criadores y empresas locales. La política se alinea con la directiva del presidente Prabowo Subianto, que exige la producción nacional de huevos para el programa.

Según Dadan, la Agencia Nacional de Nutrición no establece un menú nacional uniforme. En su lugar, establece normas de composición nutricional y coloca expertos en nutrición en cada cocina para diseñar menús basados en el potencial alimentario local.

El programa está diseñado para cubrir entre un cuarto y un tercio de las necesidades nutricionales diarias de los niños. Los datos de RISED muestran que el 81 por ciento de las familias vulnerables apoyan la continuación del programa.
