Abstract

Stunting is a condition of growth failure due to accumulated nutritional inadequacies from prenatal until two years old. Individuals' perceptions of perceived benefits influence exclusive breastfeeding and thus reduce the risk of stunting. This study aimed to analyze the perception of the benefits of breastfeeding in preventing stunting in Tuah Negeri District, Musi Rawas Regency. The research method used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Sampling using purposive sampling technique resulted in 154 respondents aged 6-36 months. Data analysis used frequency distribution, chi-square test, and logistic regression test. Univariate results, good attitude (perceived benefits) 58.4%, high knowledge 66.2%, not good practices 57.1%, age <30 years 50.6%, low education 55.2%, not working 86.4%, family income below minimum wage 93.5% and number of family members ≤4 57.1%. Mothers’ knowledge has a relationship with exclusive breastfeeding practices (p<0.05) However, there was no relationship between perceived benefits of breastmilk reflected through attitudes and exclusive breastfeeding practices, as well as age, education, occupation, income and number of family members. Multivariate showed that low mothers’ knowledge had a 3.1 times higher risk of have unfavorable practices in exclusive breastfeeding, controlled by mother’s education. Based on study, the government needs to conduct education and long-term approaches through formal education so that mothers better understand health information.

Abstract

Strategic Partnership for Public Health: Supporting Malaria Elimination in South Sumatra. Background: South Sumatra has significant potential for malaria elimination but faces challenges, including diverse ecosystems and socioeconomic factors. Strategic collaborations and a comprehensive, community-based approach are essential for successful intervention and long-term solutions. Purpose: This activity aims to increase community awareness and knowledge about malaria and its prevention; strengthen local capacity in early detection, treatment, and prevention of malaria; encourage active community involvement in vector control and surveillance efforts; and develop evidence-based policy recommendations for local governments. Method: The approach includes data analysis to create evidence-based treatments for successful malaria management, community focus groups to gauge attitudes toward the disease, stakeholder brainstorming sessions for vector control tactics, and GIS training seminars. Results: A post-implementation assessment showing a decline in cases suggests that the introduction of the malaria mobile health application has greatly raised community awareness and understanding about malaria, including its symptoms, risks, and preventative techniques. Furthermore, by enabling health professionals and policymakers to pinpoint high-risk regions, the GIS has improved efforts to prevent by facilitating data-driven intervention prioritization and more effective resource allocation.
