Abstract

This study examines Community Health Center (Puskesmas) service innovations for stunting prevention and management in Kerinci Regency and explains their potential contribution to human capital formation and local development. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach using a multiple-case study design. Eight innovations implemented across seven Community Health Centers were examined through document review of innovation proposals, activity reports, beneficiary data, and available implementation evidence. The analysis combined within-case analysis, cross-case thematic analysis, life-cycle mapping, and a Theory of Change framework. Innovation maturity scores were used descriptively to indicate implementation readiness rather than programme effectiveness. Four cross-case themes emerged: life-course prevention and early risk detection; maternal-risk monitoring and safe delivery; breastfeeding support and nutrition education; and local food-based supplementary feeding and child nutrition support. The innovation portfolio covered adolescent girls, pregnant women, childbirth, infants, and young children, with the strongest concentration of interventions during pregnancy and early childhood. Service mechanisms included home visits, monitoring of high-risk pregnancies, collaboration between midwives and traditional birth attendants, digital nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and local food-based supplementary feeding. The findings show complementary primary health-care responses to stunting risks. Nevertheless, the available documents primarily report activities and programme outputs; they do not yet provide sufficient evidence to establish causal effects on stunting prevalence.

Abstract

Regional innovation plays a strategic role in improving the quality of public services and accelerating sustainable development. Nevertheless, limited institutional capacity and resources require local governments to identify the most critical factors that constrain innovation performance. This study aims to prioritize the strengthening of regional innovation in Kerinci Regency through Pareto analysis and to examine its implications for sustainable regional development. The study employed a quantitative descriptive design using secondary data derived from the 2025 Monitoring and Evaluation of Regional Innovation Implementation in Kerinci Regency. The analysis covered 45 regional innovations assessed using 20 indicators. Indicators achieving less than 70 percent of the maximum score were classified as priority weaknesses. Their frequencies were calculated, ranked, and analyzed using cumulative percentages in accordance with the Pareto principle. The results identified 251 low-score occurrences across the evaluated innovations. Seven indicators accounted for 80.08 percent of the recorded weaknesses, comprising the availability of regional innovation implementers (16.33 percent), human resource capacity (14.34 percent), operational facilities and infrastructure (13.94 percent), innovation dissemination (12.75 percent), technical guidelines (11.95 percent), integrated service mechanisms (5.58 percent), and integration of innovation into the Regional Government Work Plan (5.18 percent). These findings indicate that the primary challenges are concentrated in institutional arrangements, implementation capacity, operational support, knowledge diffusion, regulatory guidance, service coordination, and development planning. Accordingly, improvement strategies should prioritize the formal establishment of innovation teams, competency development, adequate operational facilities, systematic dissemination, standardized technical guidelines, cross-sectoral service integration, and the incorporation of innovation priorities into regional planning and budgeting documents. Strengthening these areas is expected to enhance public-service effectiveness, institutional accountability, policy continuity, and efficient resource allocation, thereby supporting the social, economic, and governance dimensions of sustainable development in Kerinci Regency.

Abstract

This study examines disparities, sigma convergence, and the regional typology of human development across 11 regencies and cities in Jambi Province during 2020–2025. Using secondary Human Development Index (HDI) data from BPS-Statistics of Jambi Province, the study applies the range, population standard deviation, and coefficient of variation (CV) to evaluate absolute and relative dispersion. Sigma convergence is identified when cross-sectional dispersion declines over time, with the CV used as the primary criterion and the standard deviation and range used as supporting indicators. A four-quadrant typology combines each region's 2020–2025 average HDI with cumulative HDI growth. The mean HDI increased from 71.95 in 2020 to 74.99 in 2025. The CV declined from 4.23% to 3.88% and the standard deviation fell from 3.05 to 2.91, indicating moderate sigma convergence, although the range remained substantial at 11.01 points in 2025. No region occupied Quadrant I. Merangin, Sarolangun, Muaro Jambi, Tanjung Jabung Timur, and Tanjung Jabung Barat were classified as catching-up regions in Quadrant II; Batang Hari and Tebo occupied the low-achievement, low-growth Quadrant III; and Kerinci, Bungo, Jambi City, and Sungai Penuh City occupied the high-achievement, lower-growth Quadrant IV. The results show that rising HDI and declining relative dispersion coexist with a persistent absolute gap. Provincial policy should therefore sustain catching-up momentum, prioritize lagging regions, and protect service quality and inclusion in higher-achievement regions through place-sensitive interventions.
