Abstract

Malnutrition, particularly stunting, remains a major challenge in dryland regions such as East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). This area faces a range of constraints, including structural issues, limited access to nutritious food, a clean water crisis, restricted access to health services, and a lack of education and proper parenting practices—especially among women. This article analyzes the crucial role of women cadres, particularly those involved in Posyandu (Integrated Health Posts), Women Farmers Groups (KWT), and the Family Welfare Empowerment movement (PKK), as key agents of change in improving children's nutritional resilience, which in turn contributes to reducing stunting rates. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, using literature review as the primary data collection method. Data were gathered from journal articles, books, and research reports, which were then synthesized and presented narratively. The findings reveal that, despite the ecological limitations of dryland areas like NTT—characterized by short planting seasons, low rainfall, and limited water and food resources—village women cadres play a strategically significant dual role in improving child nutrition. Based on their dual function as managers of both the household "kitchen" and the village "community," these women transform local knowledge, dryland food resources, and nutrition education into sustainable daily practices. Their roles encompass nutrition and health education, local food-based dietary diversification, and advocacy at the village level. Empowering women cadres has proven to be an effective adaptive strategy to address nutritional vulnerabilities driven by the ecological challenges of dryland areas.

Abstract

Background Telecommunication accessibility is a key driver of inclusive development, particularly in Indonesia’s 3T (Disadvantaged, Frontier, and Outermost) regions, where geographical isolation and infrastructure limitations constrain economic opportunities. To reduce the digital divide, the Indonesian government has prioritized national programs such as the Palapa Ring and the deployment of Base Transceiver Stations (BTSs). This study examines how these initiatives influence telecommunication accessibility and local economic dynamics in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). Methods This study employed a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with local government officials, telecommunication providers, community leaders, and end users, complemented by field observations and document analysis. The data were analyzed thematically to identify access conditions, structural challenges, and local economic responses to telecommunication development. Results The findings indicate that expanding fiber-optic networks and BTS infrastructure has improved basic connectivity and reduced isolation in several 3T areas. Improved access supports micro, small, and medium enterprise activities, enhances access to digital education, and enables emerging digital-based livelihoods. However, benefits remain uneven due to persistent last-mile connectivity gaps, unstable network quality, low digital literacy, and limited affordability. Conclusions Telecommunication infrastructure development in 3T regions is necessary but insufficient for inclusive local economic growth. Integrating infrastructure expansion with digital literacy programs, affordability support, and targeted last-mile interventions is essential to maximize socio-economic benefits.
