Abstract

This article in-depth on the critical challenges faced in the implementation of Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) as an integrated approach in child health management. The background of the study highlights the complexity of the child health environment, limited infrastructure, and differences in cultural contexts that can affect the effectiveness of IMCI. The research gap is revealed through a lack of in-depth knowledge of all aspects of the challenges faced and a lack of exploration of potential solutions in previous research. This study describes the urgency of research related to the future investment of a nation that is closely related to child health. Presenting past research, this article highlights the knowledge gaps that still need to be filled and the need to optimize child health management strategies. This in-depth approach is considered a novelty of this research, which not only identifies challenges, but also looks for potential solutions to improve the effectiveness of IMCI. The purpose of the study is to identify, analyze, and provide solutions to challenges in IMCI implementation. The benefits of this research include contributing to further understanding of the complexities of IMCI implementation and providing practical guidance and recommendations for the improvement of child health systems. It is hoped that the results of this study can support global efforts in improving children's health through more effective implementation of IMCI.

Abstract

Community participation plays a central role in reducing morbidity and mortality rates for toddlers younger than 5 years old. This article explores the positive impact of community participation on efforts to prevent and overcome health problems under five. The background of the study reflects the need to detail societal contributions in addressing early childhood health challenges. Despite much previous research on infant health, there are still gaps in knowledge in the context of direct involvement and the effectiveness of community participation. Previous research has highlighted the importance of community empowerment in supporting child health programs, but there is still a lack of understanding of how such participation can be integrated more effectively. The novelty of this study lies in the particular focus on the role of community participation in reducing infant morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study is to provide deep insight into the contribution of society in designing, implementing, and maintaining toddler health initiatives. The results of this study support the urgency of increasing community participation in efforts to prevent disease and improve the health of toddlers. The benefits of this research are expected to provide practical guidance for policy makers, health practitioners, and related parties to optimize community participation to improve early childhood health
