<![CDATA[Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in children under five as a result of chronic malnutrition, so that children are shorter for their age. Malnutrition occurs when the baby is in the womb and in the early stages of life after birth, but is only seen after the child is 2 years old. Stunting has an impact on intelligence levels, vulnerability to disease and reduces productivity and results in hampering economic growth and increasing poverty and inequality in the future. For this reason, it is necessary to increase the capacity of cadres in community empowerment for stunting prevention. This activity aims to provide orientation to cadres and provide strengthening of HR (Human Resources) for an integrated service center in Lokus Stunting Village. The method of activity is carried out through education to cadres in the context of strengthening posyandu in an effort to prevent stunting.
