The Enhanced Partnership Against Hunger and Poverty
The EPAHP represents a collaborative initiative involving multiple Philippine government agencies tasked with addressing hunger and poverty. This program is dedicated to mitigating these challenges by empowering community-based organizations. The primary objective is to enable these organizations to function as suppliers for government procurement needs, especially in its feeding programs, fostering self-sufficiency and contributing to the overarching goals of alleviating hunger and poverty in the Philippines.
