“…Further research is needed to identify additional factors that may contribute to stunting and to develop effective interventions to address this important public health problem. Recent research articles on stunting in Indonesian children include a review of stunting determinants in Indonesia [25], a review of stunting in Indonesia, and an article on stunting in Indonesia and its increasing trend [26]. These articles highlight the persistent problem of stunting among Indonesian children and identify several factors that contribute to stunting, including di culty in accessing nutritious food, lack of exclusive breastfeeding, low birth weight, and low parental education and income.…”

Background Malnutrition is a significant global health issue, with stunting being a primary cause of death in children under the age of 5 worldwide. Despite efforts to address malnutrition and hunger, many people in underdeveloped countries continue to face challenges related to food security. The direct cause of stunting is inadequate food intake, but underlying causes include lack of education, poverty, and social and cultural reasons. Methods This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with stunting among children aged 24–60 months in Indonesia using cross-sectional data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2 and 5. Child factors, maternal factors, father factors, household factors, and community factors were analyzed. The stunting variable was measured using the Z-Score calculation of the child's height and age based on the child's gender. Descriptive and inferential analyses were used to analyze the data. Results The study found that child age, low birth weight, incomplete antenatal care, poor health sanitation, provision of complementary food, and absence of the Mother and Child Health Book or Health Card were significantly associated with stunting. The findings suggest that targeted interventions are needed to improve maternal nutrition, promote exclusive breastfeeding, enhance access to healthcare and sanitation, and increase household expenditure on animal-source and non-grain foods to reduce the prevalence of stunting among Indonesian children. Conclusions The study highlights the importance of further research to identify additional factors contributing to stunting and develop effective interventions to address this crucial public health issue. It also emphasizes the need for more comprehensive solutions to address food-related problems in underdeveloped countries, including improved access to nutritious foods, better healthcare, and increased education on healthy eating habits. Addressing malnutrition and stunting in children is crucial for improving child health outcomes and reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases later in life.

“…The R² values for Attitude Towards Use and Behavioral Intention to Use are substantial, indicating that a significant proportion of the variance in these constructs is explained by the model. Specifically, the high R² value for Behavioral Intention to Use suggests that the model effectively captures the factors influencing individuals' intentions to use technology for stunting education [36].…”

This study examines the role of religious institutions in enhancing the acceptance and implementation of technology for stunting education in Cijeruk, Bogor Regency, with an entrepreneurial perspective. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach and Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), it explores variables like Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Attitude Towards Using, and Behavioral Intention to Use. This research bridges the gap between the influence of religion, entrepreneurship, and the adoption of technology in public health education, an area that remains unexplored. The primary aim is to investigate the extent to which religious institutions can mobilize public support for ICT-based stunting interventions, demonstrating an entrepreneurial spirit in public health strategies, a largely unexplored area. Results reveal a significant positive correlation between religious endorsement and technology adoption, highlighting the potential of integrating religious perspectives with entrepreneurial initiatives to enhance the effectiveness and acceptability of stunting education programs, ultimately contributing to the broader goal of stunting reduction in the region.

“…Several studies suggest that various factors result in the incidence of stunting in children, such as parenting style (Saleh et al, 2021), exclusive breastfeeding practice (Hadi et al, 2021), psychosocial stimulation (Bogin, 2021), poor environmental hygiene and sanitation (Rah et al, 2020), especially in densely populated areas (Ali, 2021), as well as remote and demographic factors (Seiler et al, 2021). Another essential factor is economic influence (Islam et al, 2020), the mother's education (Anggraini & Romadona, 2020), as well as intermediary factors such as the number of family members, the mother's height and age, as well as the number of children, proximal factors such as exclusive breastfeeding, age, and babies with low birth weight (Chowdhury et al, 2020). The poverty rate has a relatively high contribution to the increase in stunting cases in various countries in the world (Lestari et al, 2022).…”

Poverty alleviation must be carried out in a planned and sustainable manner by the central government and regional governments, the private sector, and the entire community to achieve a prosperous society by getting special attention from the government. This study aims to analyze the impact of the non-cash food assistance program on poverty alleviation, stunting and economic problems using a public private partnership (PPP) approach that involves the role of the government, the private sector and the community. This study uses a qualitative-explorative research method to examine Indonesia's non-cash food assistance program as a national initiative to fight poverty in the form of food. Data were collected from interviews, field observations, and relevant literature, then Nvivo 12 Pro was used to analyze the results. The location of this research is in Indonesia, namely Takalar Regency. The results of the study show that the implementation of the non-cash basic food assistance program has been effective. The involvement of the government, the private sector, and the community shows this. The success factors for the basic food assistance program are alleviating poverty in Indonesia, reducing stunting rates, and increasing economic growth because people are given a place to be part of small businesses. From the results of this analysis it was concluded that the non-cash basic food assistance program is a special program that can overcome various social problems in society. So that poverty alleviation programs are expected to be sustainable and improved to provide benefits for people's welfare. The implementation of the food aid program also involved several cross-sectoral efforts to channel government assistance.
