Abstract

Arabica coffee farmers in Central Aceh and Bener Meriah districts rely on income sources from Arabica coffee plantations which are very vulnerable to climate change. The perception of Arabica coffee farmers to understand the negative impacts caused by climate change and how the adaptation efforts carried out will determine the success of Arabica coffee farmers to survive developing their coffee plantations. The purpose of this study is to find out how the perception and adaptation of Arabica coffee farmers to climate change and how the relationship between the perception and adaptation variables. Purposive sampling, namely Arabica coffee farmers under the guidance of CV. Oro Kopi Gayo and KSU Sara Ate, as many as 67 farmers. The research data were analyzed descriptively quantitative with a Likert scale analysis tool and tested using the Spearman correlation. The results of the study showed that positive Arabica coffee farmers perception on climate change which means farmers know the issue of climate change and feel its effect on Arabica coffee plants, especially the quality and productivity of Arabica coffee with knowledge indicator values of (78.12%), experience indicators (92.42%), and indicators of expectation (80.10%). However, adaptation made by farmers to climate change is still relatively low with a physical adaptation indicator value of (37.81%), environmental adaptation indicator of (47.19%), and institutional adaptation indicators of (32.18%). The relationship between perception and adaptation showed significance results of 0.838, which means the relationship between the perception and adaptation variables were not significant or meaningless.

Abstract

Anemia and stunting are significant public health issues that require immediate attention to prevent adverse impacts on maternal and child health, as well as the overall quality of human resources. One of the leading causes of maternal mortality is iron deficiency anemia, often compounded by inadequate antenatal care (ANC). In addition, poor maternal nutritional status negatively affects pregnancy outcomes, such as low birth weight, and hinders optimal growth and development in infants—factors that contribute to the risk of stunting. In both Indonesia and Vietnam, the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women remains high, ranging between 30–40%. Similarly, the prevalence of stunting in both countries is also elevated, estimated at 20–30%. Given this situation, early intervention through nutrition education for pregnant women is crucial to improve dietary patterns that meet balanced nutritional needs. Moreover, monitoring antenatal care practices is necessary to assess the level of compliance and ensure proper pregnancy management. This community engagement activity involves collaboration with health workers from the sub-health centers (Puskesmas Pembantu) in Medan, Indonesia, and Hanoi, Vietnam, as local partners. It is expected that by empowering pregnant women through nutrition education, maternal nutritional status can be improved, thereby contributing to the fulfillment of the First 1,000 Days of Life (HPK) nutrition framework and ultimately supporting efforts to prevent stunting.
