Abstract

Introduction: In Indonesia, one of the biggest nutritional problems for infants and children under two years old is stunting. Currently, the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is 21.6%, while the target to be achieved is 14% by 2024. The challenge faced by families today is no longer a population explosion, but the problem of inequality and how to improve quality, especially in terms of accelerating the reduction of stunting. This paper tries to analyze several interventions that can be given to children who are stunted. The main factor that triggers the high stunting rate is the lack of nutritional intake consumed by mothers and infants.Methods: In this literature review search, we found 5 aligned journal articles from Google Scholar and Pubmed databases. Which we then used to analyze several innovations or ways to overcome the problem of stunting in children.Results: The mother's own commitment and enthusiasm are needed to improve her own health and her child's nutritional intake. Changes in children's weight, height, and head circumference occurred after receiving nutrition interventions. Conclusion: Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that nutritional interventions, improving access to clean water and sanitation, and providing education have an effect in reducing stunting rates in Indonesia.
