“…For this reason, the aim of this research is to focus on studying the epidemiology of malnutrition and assessing the role of related factors in the incidence of malnutrition in various ecosystem zones in Papua Province, specifically in children under five years. It was also fueled by the fact that malnutrition in Indonesian children is rarely discussed and the closest is by Manongga and Littik (2023) who studied Papuan children's quality of life and Ngardita et al (2021) who studied the effect of breastfeeding and food on Papuan children stunting. Hence, the researchers would like to fill the gap by researching determinant factors affecting Papuan children to give more insight on how to solve the mentioned problem.…”

Malnutrition is a strategic problem in Indonesia, especially in Papua Province, which extends from urban to rural areas. The purpose of this study was to assess the situation of malnutrition and to find structural models of malnutrition in Papuan children in various ecosystem zones in Papua Province. The study was designed in a cross-sectional manner, where the selection of research sites used a multistage sampling procedure with stratification and cluster techniques. Data collection was done through structured interviews, observations, and field measurements. It used the least significant different test and Kruskal Wallis to determine whether there are differences in related variables between ecosystem zones. To test and assess the impact of malnutrition on child development, Structural Equation Modeling-Regression was used with a partial least squares approach. The results showed that the prevalence of undernourished children under five years old, short-nutrition, thin-nutrition, and fat-nutrition was widespread in all ecosystem zones. Malnutrition in the form of short children or stunting (TB/U) can be directly associated with social environmental factors. In order to minimize the problem of stunting in Papua, it is necessary to take steps, including improving the nutritional status and health of mothers and children, especially pregnant women, increasing access to food through a food-based approach, and intensifying program activities for basic health, environmental health, and clean water supply.

“…Penelitian di Kabupaten Keerom Papua mendapatkan hasil bahwa kejadian stunting berhubungan dengan asupan zat gizi anak dan praktek menyusui yang dilakukan oleh ibu (Rai Ngardita et al, 2021). Literatur review yang dilakukan oleh (Danefi, 2020) mendapatkan bahwa anemia dan kurang energi kronik menjadi salah satu faktor maternal dari kehamilan yang bisa menyebabkan kejadian stunting pada bayi baru lahir.…”

Stunting (short) is still a public health problem in Indonesia. The prevalence of stunting in Papua is still high (29.0%), and in Jayapura City, it is 22.9%. For the Imbi sub-district, stunting is 37%. Efforts to prevent stunting through specific interventions that reduce stunting by 30% and generally in the health sector focus on the First 1000 Days of Life (HPK). Specific intervention targets are pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, toddlers, and young women. Assistance for pregnant women is needed so that mothers get nutritional intake according to their needs and prepare mothers for feeding their children (IYCF). This activity aims to form a team to accompany pregnant women who will attend mothers to increase their knowledge and practice of maternal nutrition. The method used is training and mentoring. The targets of this activity are Posyandu cadres as an accompanying team and pregnant women in Imbi Village, North Jayapura District. This activity will be carried out from February to August 2023. Results of community service activities: a team of companions for pregnant women was formed at 2 Posyandu in the work area of Imbi Health Center, Imbi Village, consisting of 5 companions at Posyandu Tampandura and three companions at Posyandu Mahikay. There was an increase in cadres' knowledge by 30 points after the training. Mentoring activities were successfully carried out for four months. From these activities, there was an increase in Hb levels, mothers' motivation to carry out ANC examinations, and an increase in the LILA of pregnant women. Conclusion: assistance to pregnant women can overcome maternal nutritional problems and reduce risk factors for stunting children. Suggestion: It is necessary to continue to guide the accompanying team by Health officers for the sustainability of this program.
