Abstract

This research aims to analyze children's consumption patterns based on cultural, economic, social and food access factors in Karang Tumaritis Village, Nabire District. A qualitative method with a case study approach was used involving 24 informants selected through purposive sampling, consisting of health workers, community leaders and parents. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews, participant observation and documentation. The research results show that cultural factors influence preferences for traditional foods such as sweet potatoes, cassava and river fish, economic limitations cause low quality and less varied food choices, the influence of peers and the media encourages the consumption of unhealthy snacks, and dependence on markets and limited garden space become obstacles to food access. Then, the main challenges include lack of nutritional knowledge, economic limitations, and low parental attention. Therefore, improvement strategies include serving attractive foods and nutrition education. The research recommends strengthening nutrition education, using local food, and cross-sector synergy to improve children's healthy and sustainable consumption patterns.
