Cambodian FBDG now on FAO Website
More than 100 countries in the world have developed their own Food-Based Dietary Guidelines (FBDG) according to the local food culture and foodstuff commonly available at market. Those FBDGs are listed on the website of Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Cambodia was unequipped with FBDG for a long time. Requested by the Ministry of Health, FIDR led the working group for establishing Cambodian FBDG for school-aged children, which was eventually finalized last year and endorsed by MoH. Lately, this Cambodia FBDG was posted in the FAO’s website; the image of the tri-color national flag featuring Angkor Wat was added in the list of FBDG holder countries. It means that the development of Cambodian FBDG was in compliance with the international standard that requires scientific evidences obtained by rigorous survey and analysis.
Because it was the first experience for Cambodia to produce FBDG, it is far from a perfect one. Yet, it is a sure one step forward to the better nutrition of the Cambodian children. FIDR is going to challenge toward the objective by actively holding hands with MoH, Ministry of Education, and various organizations.
