Abstract

Stunting, which results from chronic undernutrition during childhood, is a serious problem that affects the overall well-being and development of society. In many countries, including Indonesia, the prevalence of stunting is still concerning and is one of the main challenges in efforts to improve the quality of life of the population. The partners of this community partnership program (PKM) are the families of stunted toddlers at Posyandu Ratna 1 in Banjar Bayung Gede, Bayung Gede Village, Kintamani District, totaling five families. Their priority problems were lack of knowledge about nutrition and healthy eating for children under five and nutritional intake, especially protein intake, was far below the nutritional guidelines (AKG). The purpose of this activity is to increase community knowledge about the dangers and prevention of stunting and its handling. The proposed solution to overcome the priority problems of partners is to provide education about nutrition and healthy eating according to the guideline “isi piringkuâ€, protein sources that are easily obtained and managed in the neighborhood to parents of children under five and provide assistance in the form of high protein nutrition packages. This PKM activity was carried out in stages starting from preparation, followed by providing education and providing nutritional package assistance in the form of high protein milk. Counseling and discussion activities were held for a day, attended by 5 fostered families and other families who were visiting the posyandu at that time. The enthusiasm of the community can be seen from the questions asked. Evaluation was conducted after the program was completed. The education and assistance provided had a positive impact on the assisted families.
