Abstract

Stunting remains a public health problem in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 19.8% in 2024. Although local foods have the potential to support stunting prevention, the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children regarding the utilization of protein- and vitamin A-rich local foods, such as catfish flour and pumpkin flour, is still limited. This study aimed to determine the effect of nutrition education on the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children regarding the utilization of catfish flour and pumpkin flour for stunting prevention. This study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The population consisted of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children in the working area of Andalas Public Health Center. A total of 64 participants were selected using the Federer formula and a multistage random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the paired t-test. The instrument used was a pretest and posttest questionnaire to measure the knowledge levels of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children. The results showed that nutrition education supported by audiovisual media and hands-on practice improved the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children regarding the utilization of local foods for stunting prevention, as indicated by a p-value ≤ 0.05, although not all groups demonstrated significant changes. This intervention may serve as a supportive strategy to accelerate stunting reduction through Posyandu activities.

Abstract

The availability of an adequate number of qualified nutrition experts is a supporting factor for the success of nutrition programs and health transformation. The research aims to analyze the relationship between job suitability of nutrition professionals, education level, participation in training, and the competence of nutrition experts in relation to the nutritional status (prevalence of stunting) in West Sumatra, Indonesia. The study was conducted using a cross-sectional design, with a sample size of 698 nutrition professionals working in 16 districts/cities in West Sumatra. Data were collected through a questionnaire in Google Form format. This study revealed that 35.6% of nutrition professionals did not possess an active registration certificate. Around 43.9% had only completed a three-year diploma program, and 13.7% were not working in accordance with their profession. Approximately 65% of nutrition experts had not received training related to their authority, and 76.3% did not possess relevant competency certification to support their performance. There was a significant relationship between the number of nutrition professionals working in accordance with their profession, participation in training, and competency certification with the occurrence of stunting (p<0.05). The conclusion is that the higher the number of nutrition professionals working in accordance with their profession, trained, and competent, the lower the prevalence of stunting in the area. Policy measures and efforts are needed to meet the needs of nutrition experts in terms of quantity and quality in order to strengthen nutrition programs and improve the level of health in West Sumatra.
