In 2023, FoN UI students and lecturers organised trainings and programmes to improve access to basic services for the community. The training and programmes held are mostly community outreach about stunting and mental health; and health outreach in junior high schools.
Stunting
Prevention and Control of Stunting through the “Youth Laskar Cegah Stunting (Rela Ceting)”, Lombok Specialized Complementary Food Recipes (Rempah Lombok), and Strengthening the Role of Cadres in Jerowaru District, NTB.
As a form of FoN UI’s efforts to implement the second SDGs goal of eliminating hunger and all forms of malnutrition, the FoN UI community service team in collaboration with the Jerowaru Community Health Center and the East Lombok Regency Women’s Empowerment, Child Protection and Family Planning Office (DP3AKB) held a program to empower cadres and mothers with children under two years of age (baduta) in an effort to prevent and control stunting. It is hoped that Jerowaru as a representative of East Lombok Regency can become a model for other sub-districts. This activity aims to provide an understanding to cadres and mothers about the importance of stunting prevention and the right way to provide complementary foods based on the local Lombok menu according to the age of the child.Evidence
