Abstract

Stunting management requires strong cross-sectoral collaboration; therefore, this research is considered urgent, with the aim of accelerating stunting prevention efforts through a concrete synergy between academics, the government (Health Office), Posyandu cadres, and target communities. The main strategy of this synergy focuses on introducing innovation in complementary feeding (MP-ASI) recipes based on local food wisdom to sustainably improve children’s nutritional quality. The implementation method combines interactive two-way education with hands-on demonstrations of MP-ASI preparation innovations designed to be practical, affordable, and nutrient-dense for households. This program synergy produced highly positive evaluation results; there was a significant increase in participants’ average nutrition knowledge score from 65.35 to 80.71. The proportion of participants with good knowledge increased from 30.0% to 87.5%, while the proportion in the poor knowledge category decreased from 20.0% to 0.0%. The high level of community participation and cadres’ enthusiasm in cooking practices demonstrates that local MP-ASI recipe innovations, when driven by multi-stakeholder synergy, serve as a highly effective strategy to strengthen Posyandu capacity and address stunting at the grassroots level.
