Abstract

Diarrhea is a communicable disease that frequently causes Extraordinary Events (KLB/outbreak) and is often accompanied by death in Indonesia. One of the factors associated with the incidence of diarrhea is the unhygienic or indiscriminate disposal of feces, which is closely related to human behavior. This study aims to describe the level of knowledge, attitudes, and actions regarding toddler feces management in relation to the incidence of diarrhea in Galung Village, Tapalang District, in 2024. This research used a descriptive method with total sampling, involving 106 mothers of toddlers as respondents. Data were collected through direct interviews using a questionnaire. Based on the results, of the 106 respondents, 74 (69.8%) had toddlers who experienced diarrhea. Respondents with good knowledge who experienced diarrhea numbered 57 (69.51%); respondents with a disapproving attitude who experienced diarrhea numbered 68 (72.3%); and respondents with insufficient actions who experienced diarrhea numbered 48 (67.6%). It is concluded that the majority of mothers had good knowledge but still experienced diarrhea, most mothers held disapproving attitudes toward safe feces management, and most mothers' actions in feces management were still insufficient. It is recommended that local health centers routinely conduct health education targeting safe toddler feces management practices, particularly focusing on areas with the highest rates of insufficient responses. The suggestion from this research is that the public is expected to pay more attention to the processing of toddler feces so that the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers can be treated early

Abstract

Indonesia has a high level of styrofoam usage, reaching approximately 10.95 million pieces of waste per year, including 11.9 tons from the non-household sector. The use of styrofoam packaging is becoming increasingly widespread among food vendors; however, it has never been studied in the Anjungan Pantai Manakarra area. This study aims to determine the use of styrofoam as food packaging by vendors and buyers’ preferences regarding its use around Anjungan Pantai Manakarra. The method used is quantitative descriptive, with samples consisting of 17 stalls that use styrofoam and 289 buyers.. The results show that the type of food most frequently packaged with styrofoam is fried rice (9.1%), while chicken porridge (23%) dominates among hot foods. A total of 41.2% of vendors use styrofoam because it is easy to obtain. Consumers prefer paper-based packaging (44%).In conclusion, the use of styrofoam as food packaging remains high without restrictions on the type of food, while consumers tend to choose more environmentally friendly packaging. Education and outreach are needed for vendors about the health and environmental hazards of styrofoam and the importance of using safer and more sustainable alternative packaging.
