“…Similarly, if a child's height or length falls below of -3 SD of the WHO Child Growth Standards median for that age and gender, they are deemed severely stunted. 2 Stunting is associated with impaired growth and development in children. In the short term, it can cause problems such as: an upward trend in the morbidity and mortality rate of children, decreased intelligence, motor disorders, increased spending on health, and increased costs for health care and disease treatment.…”

Objectives: To analyze factors related to stunting in Papua region. Methods: Secondary data from the 2021 Indonesian National Nutrition Status Survey were used in this study. Samples of 2,937 Papuan children under the age of two were gathered for the study. This study analyzed independent variables (type of residence, mother’s age, marriage, mother’s education, employment, wealth, child’s age, gender, and early breastfeeding initiation (EBFI) with stunting. The relationship was analyzed using logistic regression tests. Results: Stunting is more common among children in Papua’s rural areas than in urban (AOR 1.168, 95% CI, 1.128-1.209). Stunting is more common in children who mother do not work than in mothers who do (AOR 1.174, 95% CI, 1.142- 1.207). Stunting is more common in children aged 12-23 months compared to children <12 months (AOR 3.381, 95% CI, 3.291-3.474). Compared to girls, boys are more likely to become stunted (AOR 1.348, 95% CI, 1,314-1,383). Children under the age of two who do not experience EBFI are at higher risk than those who have (AOR 1.078, 95% CI, 1.050-1.106). Conclusion: There are eight variables associated with stunting, namely residence, age of mother, mother’s education, mother’s occupation, economic status, child’s age, gender, and EBFI. Prioritization of stunting interventions in Papua should be targeted at mothers who living in rural, having low education, and not doing early breastfeeding initiation.
