stunting prevention, community-based intervention, adolescent empowermentAbstract
Poor nutritional status among adolescents is an important factor that determines poor health outcomes. If the nutritional needs of adolescent female are not met, they are at high risk of death due to pregnancy and childbirth and are more likely to give birth to babies with low birth weight. There is a need for good nutritional knowledge about stunting and its prevention in adolescents as one way to reduce stunting rates in the future. This study was conducted as a basis for developing a community-based stunting prevention program called "GENTING" (Gerakan Enyahkan Stunting) as an effort to prevent stunting in adolescents. The study was conducted using a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. This study was conducted in Gunungkidul Regency, Yogyakarta. The sample in this study were adolescent female aged 13-15 years. Participants in the study were selected by purposive sampling, with the following criteria: adolescent female aged 13-15 years and adolescents who actively use social media. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussions (FGD), after that, the interview and FGD recordings were transcribed and then codes and categories were identified. The results of the study showed that stunting prevention programs were not routinely carried out in schools. The program was only carried out when health workers needed data for their screening or research. The counseling that was conducted was not followed up with follow-up, thus creating a negative impression of the program. Interactive and technology-based approaches are very relevant for adolescence who tend to be more familiar with digital devices. Interactive programs such as using audiovisual media that are distributed through social media are more attractive to adolescence
