Abstract

Stunting, defined as a growth disorder in children under five caused by chronic malnutrition, remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia (Bahrun & Wildan, 2022). The high prevalence of stunting impacts children’s physical growth, cognitive development, and future quality of life (Sutarto et al., 2018). This study aims to provide an overview of the role of nutrition in preventing stunting, with a focus on supplementary feeding (PMT) as an effective nutritional intervention. The method employed involved providing guidance to families with stunted infants on providing supplementary food appropriate to the child’s nutritional needs. The guidance activities included education on the importance of balanced nutrition, providing sample menus for supplementary feeding based on local food ingredients, and monitoring changes in feeding practices for the children. The main results of the activities showed an increase in mothers’ or caregivers’ knowledge regarding nutrition and stunting, positive changes in supplementary feeding practices, and improvements in children’s health and growth and development. The conclusion of this study is that continuous mentoring is a crucial strategy in supporting the accelerated reduction of stunting in Indonesia

Abstract

Stunting, as a chronic nutritional problem, remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly among toddlers. This condition is characterized by impaired linear growth caused by prolonged malnutrition. In Cempaka Putih Subdistrict, based on field observations, toddlers with undernutrition and stunting are still found. Additionally, mothers’ limited understanding of providing nutritious complementary foods (PMT) is a major concern. Therefore, this community service activity aims to improve mothers’ knowledge regarding balanced nutrition and stunting prevention through guidance on providing complementary foods. The methods used included interactive education sessions, guidance on the provision of supplementary feeding, and anthropometric examinations. The results of the activity showed a 45% increase in mothers’ knowledge, improvements in growth among some toddlers, and the conclusion that community-based guidance is effective in supporting stunting prevention
