Implications and Recommendations<br />
Food access is improving despite increasing unemployment,<br />
which indicates progress for the Province in meeting one of<br />
its Minimum Basic Needs targets. To cope with the issue on<br />
malnutrition, the Province sustains feeding and nutrition, and<br />
other social assistance programs implemented by its various<br />
agencies. The program is getting good results and is a credit<br />
to the Province.<br />
