Abstract

Indonesia still faces nutritional problems, which seriously impact the quality of human resources (HR). One of the problems of malnutrition that is still relatively high in Indonesia includes the issue of stunting and emaciation in toddlers, as well as the problem of anemia and chronic energy deficiency (CED) in pregnant women. The theme "The Important: Caring for Stunting" invites UPI KKN students to play their role as agents of change to overcome the problem of stunting in society. Students are expected to be able to get closer to communities affected by stunting, learn about the root causes, and develop concrete solutions that can be implemented on a local scale. This KKN activity was carried out on 26 July - 26 August 2023. Located in Karangwangi village, Ciranjang District, Cianjur Regency. The work program procedures for this activity were carried out in collaboration with the TP-PKK regarding posyandu services, stunting outreach to PAUD, and PHBS outreach to Karangsari Elementary School. From the results of this work program, it is hoped that we will know more about stunting and can prevent stunting in children in the future. The hope is that the stunting rate in Indonesia can decrease, especially in Karangwangi Village itself; the stunting rate is at 0 (zero), so this hope can be maintained.
