Abstract

Stunting is a nutritional problem that can impair the growth and development of children under five. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of young children regarding stunting prevention through nutrition education. The activity was conducted from June 20–26, 2026, at Posyandu in Salubiro Village, Uekayabi Hamlet, and Saliano Hamlet, within the working area of Wongkondaya Public Health Center, North Morowali Regency. A total of 50 participants participated, consisting of 15 Posyandu cadres and 35 mothers of young children. The methods included health education, interactive discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and evaluation using pretests and posttests. The results showed an increase in participants with good knowledge from 12 (24%) to 38 (76%), while those with poor knowledge decreased from 18 (36%) to 2 (4%). Nutrition education was effective in improving participants’ knowledge and strengthening the role of Posyandu cadres and mothers in stunting prevention.
