A comprehensive analysis of the impact of obesity on school-age children as well as the effectiveness of nutrition education interventions in an effort to mitigate its prevalence. Child obesity, which is based on Body Mass Index (BMI) above 2 standard deviation (SD), has broad implications for physical, social, emotional, and self-esteem health. This condition is also associated with decreased academic performance, reduced quality of life, limb growth disorders, sleep disfunction, sleep apnoea, respiratory complications, as well as accelerated bone maturation and sexual maturity.The findings show that school-based nutrition education is an effective strategy in increasing knowledge and delivery of nutrition interventions, especially when supported by all elements of the school. The duration and frequency of exposure to interventions are crucial factors for the success of nutrition education in triggering behavioural changes. Therefore, the prevention and management of obesity in children through structured nutrition education is essential.

Di era transformasi digital dan big data, perlindungan data pribadi menjadi isu yang sangat mendesak, terutama dengan diberlakukannya Undang-Undang Nomor 27 Tahun 2022 tentang Pelindungan Data Pribadi (UU PDP) di Indonesia. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk melakukan tinjauan kritis terhadap pelaksanaan UU PDP 2022, mengeksplorasi tantangan, peluang, serta dampaknya terhadap hak atas privasi individu. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi pustaka kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis, mengkaji literatur terkini dan dokumen hukum melalui analisis tematik.

Artikel ini memberikan kontribusi dengan menawarkan pemahaman baru tentang urgensi tata kelola data yang inklusif dan berbasis kepercayaan publik, sekaligus memberikan rekomendasi praktis bagi pemangku kepentingan. Kesimpulannya, perlindungan data pribadi memerlukan sinergi lintas sektor untuk menciptakan ekosistem digital yang adil, aman, dan berdaulat, serta perlu didukung penelitian lanjutan yang lebih mendalam dan komparatif.

The phenomenon of buzzers in digital advertising has become a critical concern in contemporary communication dynamics, due to their role in spreading covert messages for commercial and political purposes. This study aims to analyze the persuasive strategies and communication tactics of buzzers, algorithmic amplification patterns, and audience perceptions toward the disseminated content. Using a qualitative method through a systematic literature review, the study identifies three dominant buzzer strategies: native advertising, pseudo-influencer testimonials, and clickbait-based disinformation. These are often amplified through algorithmic tactics such as bot networks, trending hashtags, and endorsements by constructed influencer personas. Findings show that buzzer content is effective when perceived as authentic and emotionally engaging, but tends to generate resistance once users detect manipulation. The study’s implications highlight the need for greater transparency in digital communication, regulation of sponsored content, and improved media literacy to mitigate disinformation and public distrust. The research also emphasizes the importance of ethical approaches in digital communication practices to safeguard democratic integrity and sustainable brand–public relationships.

The rapid development of digital technology has increased the potential for cybercrime, including cyber scams, which cause major losses to victims both materially and psychologically. In this context, the state is obliged to provide legal protection to victims, but in practice there are still many legal gaps and suboptimal implementation. This study aims to analyze the form of legal protection for victims of cyber scam crimes and the impact of these crimes in triggering secondary victimization. This study uses an empirical legal method with a descriptive-analytical approach that combines primary data from observations and interviews as well as secondary data from legal literature and laws and regulations. The results of the study show that although there is a legal umbrella such as the ITE Law and the Witness and Victim Protection Law, the victim protection mechanism has not been running effectively. The contribution of this study provides urgency for improving regulations and implementing victim-oriented legal protection, as well as the importance of digital literacy and empathy for law enforcement in handling cybercrime cases.
