Abstract

The stunting rate in Raknamo village is the highest with a total of 45 cases. The research objectives are: Analyzing the relationship between community-based total sanitation (STBM) practices and the incidence of stunting and analyzing the STBM practice factors that are most dominant in their relationship to the incidence of stunting. Therefore, research on STBM practices is very important to find out STBM factors that are related to stunting so that efforts can be made to prevent and overcome stunting. Types of qualitative and quantitative descriptive research (mixed methods). This approach was chosen to understand complex phenomena related to community-based total sanitation (STBM) practices in families of stunting sufferers, identify factors that influence the implementation of STBM, analyze the level of knowledge and community sanitation practices in depth. Qualitative research reveals subjective aspects, people's perceptions of STBM, quantitative research provides an accurate numerical picture of existing conditions. The results show that the defecation habits of respondents in cases with a latrine are 27 (69%), and families who do not have a latrine but still share are 12 (31%). (69%) have a private latrine, but there are still 31% who do not have a latrine and use shared facilities or defecate in the garden. The CTPS practice of families of toddlers with stunting is still low, only 33% always do it, while 64% sometimes do it. All families of toddlers with stunting (100%) boil water before consuming it, but only 79% keep the water source clean.

Abstract

This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to improve home environmental sanitation and personal hygiene as an effort to prevent stunting in Liliba Village, Kupang City, an area with a relatively high stunting rate. The activity was carried out at the Melati 11 Integrated Health Post (Posyandu) and targeted mothers with stunted toddlers and Posyandu cadres. The intervention was carried out through health education on home sanitation and personal hygiene, knowledge assessments using pre- and post-tests, and the repair of one family toilet unit that previously did not meet environmental health requirements. The results of the activity showed an average increase in knowledge of participating mothers by 7–8% after the education, accompanied by an increased understanding of clean and healthy living practices (PHBS). The enthusiasm of the participants in the discussion indicated a good receptivity to the material. In addition, the toilet repair has resulted in a sanitation facility that meets healthy toilet standards and is expected to serve as a model for other families. Overall, this program is effective in increasing the knowledge, awareness, and quality of sanitation of families at risk of stunting. This activity also supports the achievement of the STBM pillars, especially Stop Open Defecation (BABS), and provides a real and sustainable impact on the community.
