Stunting remains a significant global health issue, with Indonesia ranking fifth in the world for stunting prevalence according to UNICEF 2018. Despite a decrease from 24.4% in 2021 to 21.6% in 2022, the rate still exceeds the World Health Organization (WHO) target of 20%. The highest prevalence is in East Nusa Tenggara Province (35.3%). Stunting is caused by poor nutrition, repeated infections, and inadequate psychosocial stimulation. It affects children's growth and development, leading to long-term health and cognitive issues. Prevention and treatment efforts include programs like Sun Up Nutrition (SUN), Supplementary Food for Recovery (PMT-P), health cadre training, and prenatal classes for mothers. These initiatives aim to improve nutrition and awareness to reduce stunting. The government and Ministry of Health continue efforts to further reduce stunting rates. Stunting prevention requires a multi-sectoral approach, focusing on the first 1000 days of life. Health cadres play a key role in monitoring and providing nutrition support. Prenatal classes help educate mothers on preventing stunting. Overall, stunting remains a critical global health challenge requiring sustained efforts to reduce its impact.Stunting remains a significant global health issue, with Indonesia ranking fifth in the world for stunting prevalence according to UNICEF 2018.
