Stunting (dwarf) is a condition where a toddler has a length or height that is less when compared to age. This condition indicates a poor nutritional status (malnutrition) over a long period of time (chronic). The purpose of this study was to find out the relationship between maternal parenting and the incidence of stunting in children aged 24-60 months in the Teritih sub-district, the working area of the Kalodran Public Health Center, Serang City, Banten Province in 2022. This research is descriptive and this research uses primary data with a measuring instrument, namely a questionnaire that has been tested as an instrument , in data analysis using the Chi Square statistical test with a sample of 14 pregnant women who have children aged 24-60 months and the researchers chose respondents with total sampling technique. Most of the results were obtained in providing food with democratic parenting as many as 9 (64.3%) and almost all respondents who were stunted were short as many as 10 (71.4%). The results of the chi square test showed P = 0.000, which means that there was a significant relationship between parenting style and the incidence of stunting and the OR value of 1.400 indicated that democratic parenting was more at risk of stunting once than authoritarian parenting in providing food or nutrition to children. It is recommended to increase knowledge and provide direct experience for researchers so that it becomes a reference material for comparing theories with stunting incidents in the community.

Cardiovascular disease is still a health problem at this time. This can increase the morbidity, disability, and socio-economic burden on society. The main indicator for cardiovascular disease is the quality of life of a person. Therefore, early detection of the risk of cardiovascular disease is needed so that it can be studied further, monitored, and given appropriate interventions by health workers. This community service activity was divided into 3 sessions including carrying out the pretest, KIE and posttest, and health measurements in the form of measuring blood pressure and cholesterol levels. In the IEC session, the material that will be delivered is the introduction and control of risk factors for heart disease (hypertension and high cholesterol levels); balanced nutritional intake for people with hypertension and high cholesterol; hypertension as co-morbid co-19; the benefits of physical activity for people with hypertension and high cholesterol; and health measurement in the form of measurement of blood pressure and cholesterol.

The Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS) is a program launched by the Ministry of Health to reduce the main risk of infectious and non-communicable diseases (NCDs), especially through nutritional interventions in the first 1000 days of life, improving balanced nutritional consumption patterns for the whole family, increasing regular and measurable physical activity. , improve healthy lifestyles, improve a healthy environment and reduce cigarette and alcohol consumption. Interview data showed that the majority of people, 48%, rarely had their health checked as early as possible, residents would go to the nearest health center if signs and symptoms of illness began to appear. Integrated counseling on prevention of emergency non-communicable diseases, Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus, is carried out in one day, residents are gathered in the Mijen Village hall. The activity begins with simultaneous fitness exercises, then continues with a health check. The health checks carried out include anthropometric measurements in the form of height, weight, abdominal circumference, blood pressure measurements and random blood sugar measurements. Of the 50 residents who took part in the implementation of integrated counseling on the prevention of non-communicable disease emergencies. Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus, as many as 24% of residents (12 people) just found out that they suffer from pre-diabetes mellitus, 16% (8 people) already know that they suffer from hypertension and diabetes mellitus, as many as 6% (3 people) have a stomach circumference of more than 100 cm, 54% (27 people) were in good health. Residents were quite enthusiastic about the activities carried out. The data obtained in the integrated counseling activity for preventing emergency non-communicable diseases, hypertension and diabetes mellitus, was submitted to the Mijen Community Health Center as a recap of data on the health status of the target area. The data obtained will be followed up by motivating residents to have their health checked at the Mijen Health Center.

Non-communicable diseases (PTM) are diseases that cannot be transmitted from person to person, whose development progresses slowly over a long period of time (chronic). In the early stages, PTM is often asymptomatic, many do not know and are aware that they have PTM, thus making public awareness for self-examination/early detection lacking. Posbindu PTM activities to increase community participation in prevention and early detection of PTM risk factors through training of Posbindu health cadres including general health assessments, nutritional assessments and provision of additional food made from local ingredients.

The high number of stunting cases in Indonesia is in the spotlight of WHO, so that stunting cases are given serious attention by the government by making preventing and reducing the number of stunting cases a national program through the collaboration of several ministries. Based on this, the government launched food estates as a national strategic program for 2020-2024. It is hoped that this program will be a solution to overcome the high number of stunting cases while reducing the number of stunting cases that have been found. The food estate program approach, which is expected to have an impact on reducing and preventing stunting cases, uses the "zero waste furming system" method, namely the use of corn and oil palm plantations that have developed so far as beef cattle farms where corn and plantation waste are processed into animal feed. and livestock manure and urine are processed into biogas and organic fertilizer which are really needed by corn and oil palm plants. The intervention program to reduce and prevent stunting rates in Central Mamuju Regency is carried out comprehensively through a food security program (food estate) and providing additional nutrition and other nutritional needs, especially for community groups who are vulnerable to nutritional and protein deficiencies.

Multiple nutritional problems include undernutrition and over nutrition at the age of five.

Nutrition for pregnant women should receive attention because nutrition influences fetal development. However, in the reality, the knowledge of pregnant women about nutrition for the fetus is still low. One of the efforts to prevent the fetal growth problem is by consuming fish. This research determined the correlation between knowledge level about fish nutrition and the importance of consuming fish as the nutrition for pregnant women to prevent stunting. This correlation analytical research design used a retrospective approach. The population consisted of 82 respondents from all first and second-trimester mothers at MIP Mustofiah, Weding Bonang Village, Demak. The sample consisted of 76 participants taken with purposive sampling. The applied instrument was questionnaires of knowledge level and food frequency. The data analysis applied Pearson's product-moment correlation test. The results showed that the pregnant women at MIP Mustofiah, Weding village, did not consume fish as an important nutrient for pregnant women in preventing stunting. They did not consume fish because they had lower knowledge about the nutrition of fish. The evidence was the obtained p-value, 0.000 lower than 0.05. The value indicated the correlation between the knowledge level about fish nutrition and the consumption of fish as the nutritional source for pregnant women in preventing stunting. The observable correlation was strong, indicated by r-value = 0.803. The results recommended pregnant women improve their knowledge by following health socialization, reading mass media, and improving the consumption of fish as a nutritional source of pregnant women. These actions will improve the efforts to prevent stunting.   Keywords: Knowledge, Fish Consumption, Pregnant Women

For students in primary schools, there are still numerous nutritional issues to be solved. There has been an increase in the prevalence of overweight and underweight children in the Malang City area, particularly in the Puskesmas Mojolangu working area. One location where these dietary issues occur is SDN Tasikmadu 1. This is a result of the absence of educational resources for understanding balanced nutrition. The goal of this study is to create a balanced nutrition four card instructional media and evaluate its viability and efficacy as a tool for balanced nutrition education. The study follows the define, design, create, and disseminate framework while using a research and development approach.

Nutritional intake is very important for optimal growth and health in the future. Factors that directly affect children's nutritional health problems, namely children not getting enough balanced nutritious food. Nutritional problems in toddlers can be avoided if the mother has sufficient knowledge about how to feed and manage toddler food properly, one of which is by getting health education. The purpose of this community service is to increase the understanding of PKK Jimus Village mothers to be able to apply balanced nutrition on serving plates for toddlers. The community service method is carried out by counseling, discussion, and mentoring. As for the results of the service, it was found that counseling and mentoring accompanied by discussions with PKK Jimus Village mothers had a positive impact on the understanding and application of balanced nutrition on serving plates for toddlers.

Food and agricultural products are perishable, so they have the potential to experience losses, both in quality and quantity during the post-harvest process and processing due to physiological changes in the form of physical, chemical and microbiological. As an effort to reduce losses during post-harvest and physiological changes, it is necessary to apply appropriate technology (appropriate technology). The application of ozone technology in the handling of fruits, vegetables and fishery products has good prospects because it is felt to be safe and effective. Ozone (O3) has the main function, namely as an oxidizer and disinfectant or a combination of these two functions. The high oxidation potential of ozone can be used to kill bacteria (sterilization process), remove color (decolorization process), remove odors (deodorization process), and decompose organic compounds (degradation process). The treatment of ozonized water in the storage of food products and agricultural products does not damage their nutritional content, because the ozone content itself will be lost by evaporation. If ozone is exposed to sunlight it will break down into oxygen compounds again. Utilization of ozone technology is widely used to reduce contamination and extend the shelf life of fresh fruit, vegetables and fishery products. This paper examines and synthesizes several research results related to the use of ozone for fruits, vegetables and other agricultural commodities during the postharvest process and handling of agricultural products.

Stunting remains a chronic nutritional issue affecting human resource quality in Indonesia, particularly children under five years old. High prevalence of stunting impacts long-term cognitive development, physical growth, and productivity of the young generation (Ministry of Health, 2023). This community service aims to optimize the role of public administration in disseminating policies and programs to reduce stunting through education, training, and direct community assistance. Activities were carried out through coordination with government officials, community health cadres, and local leaders, using local communication media to raise awareness about nutrition. The results indicate an increase in community knowledge on stunting, balanced nutrition practices, and active involvement of both officials and residents in stunting reduction programs. Optimizing public administration through capacity building, cross-sector coordination, and information technology utilization supports program targets. This service recommends strategies for sustainable, participatory, and data-driven program implementation. Enhancing community concern for orphans is an essential aspect of inclusive and sustainable social development. This community service activity aims to implement strategies of empathetic communication and social management to improve the quality of social interactions and community attention toward orphans. The method applied was a participatory and qualitative descriptive approach, involving both the community and orphans in all stages of the activity, from planning, implementation, to evaluation. The results indicate a significant improvement in social interaction quality between the community and orphans. The children exhibited positive emotional responses, such as comfort, acceptance, and appreciation, while the community demonstrated increased participation, collective responsibility, and structured social management skills. The integration of empathetic communication and social management produced dual impacts: enhanced emotional well-being of orphans and strengthened social empathy within the community. These findings suggest that this strategy can serve as a sustainable model for social care activities and can be replicated in other communities. Therefore, the application of empathetic communication and social management has the potential to support inclusive social development, foster community solidarity, and improve the welfare of vulnerable groups sustainably.

One of the stunting locations in East Tanjung Jabung Regency is located in Geragai Sub-district, Pandan Lagan Village. According to data from the Puskesmas in 2019, the incidence of stunting in Pandan Lagan Village was 35 toddlers, in 2020 it was 17 stunting children out of a total of 70 children in Pandan Lagan Village. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between maternal nutritional status, history of maternal conditions, and maternal knowledge about 1000 HPK with the incidence of stunting in Pandan Lagan Village. This type of research is quantitative research, using a cross-sectional approach. The number of samples to be studied with the Lemeshow Formula is 45 respondents. The dependent variable is stunting and the independent variables are maternal nutritional status (pre-pregnant maternal BMI and weight gain during pregnancy), history of maternal conditions (maternal age during pregnancy, birth spacing), and maternal knowledge about 1000 HPK. The research instrument used a questionnaire sheet, then the data was processed through data editing, data coding, data entry, data cleaning, and data processing, then analyzed univariate, bivariate with a chi-square test, and multivariate with multiple logistic regression test. Based on the results of the study, there is a relationship between pre-pregnancy maternal BMI with a risk of 4,464 times, weight gain with a risk of 3,75 times, maternal age during pregnancy with a risk of 3,0 times, and spacing of babies with a risk of 2,444 times with the incidence of stunting. There is no relationship between maternal knowledge about 1000 HPK and the incidence of stunting with a p-value = 0,114, and it is known that the pre-pregnancy mother's BMI variable is the variable that has the greatest influence on infants with stunting nutritional status (odds ratio = 15,943). For this reason, it is expected to be more intensive in educating couples of childbearing age, pre-pregnant mothers, or early on to adolescent girls to pay attention to factors that affect stunted children, especially to have an ideal BMI so that it will reduce the risk of having children with stunted nutritional status.
