The Cilincing Sub-district Health Center, North Jakarta is intensifying the validation of toddlers suspected of being stunted in the Kali Baru Urban Village area.

We'll ensure the truth as well as map potential triggers

Cilincing Sub-district Health Center Head, Raden Achmad Sigit said that the validation was conducted to ensure the data and condition of toddlers experiencing stunting. It was done by going directly to the field and visiting residents' homes.

"We'll ensure the truth as well as map potential triggers," he said when he attended stunting prevention and national insight socialization activity held by the National Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) and the Indonesian Police Mobile Brigade Corps (Brimob) in the NCICD Embankment area, Kali Baru UrbanVillage, Tuesday (2/7).

According to him, the trigger for stunted toddlers could be from various factors, including the family's economic conditions, parents' lack of understanding of nutritional intake, or having congenital diseases.

He explained that this validation involved cadres of Dasawisma, PKK, Posyandu, and RT/RW administrators, including all stakeholders and community elements.

"This is our cooperation effort to eradicate stunting," he concluded.

Based on the validation results, he would follow up with a stunting management program. Hopefully, the stunting problem in Kali Baru area and Cilincing Sub-district could be resolved effectively and efficiently.

"So, the result of mapping the potential triggers will be the formulation of the pattern of handling," he concluded.
