“…Rural residents' access to health information was less than that of urban residents 15 . When looking at household-level determinants, mothers from rural households tended to have lower socioeconomic characteristics than mothers from urban households, in line with other studies 7,8 . As presented in Table 2, mothers of NU children are significantly more likely to know that their 2-or 3-month-old infants cannot eat bananas or papayas than mothers of NR babies (p<0.05).…”

“…According to a study, the majority of the 3,150 mothers who were pregnant or who had children under two years old in rural areas in seven provinces and ten districts didn't realize what stunting was 6 . Stunting discrepancies have been linked to variations in the traits and behaviors of urban and rural populations 7 . Another study also showed that stunting prevalence overall was decreasing in Tanzania, but the gap between urban and rural areas has grown due to the slower rate of decline in the rural areas 8 .…”

Background: Maternal nutritional knowledge must be strengthened to lower the problem of stunting. However, there is currently a lack of information regarding the nutritional knowledge of mothers of stunted and non-stunted children in West Java's rural and urban areas. Objectives: This study compares the nutritional knowledge of mothers of under-five children in West Java across four groups: those who are stunted in rural areas (SR), those who are stunted in urban areas (SU), and those who are not in rural (NR) and urban (NU). Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Cianjur (rural) and Sukabumi City (urban) in June 2022. Data was collected through interview to 300 mothers of children underfive using pretested questionnaire. Nutritional knowledge comprised of 20 questions about infant and young child feeding and balanced nutrition. One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD Post Hoc Tests were applied for data analyses using IBM SPSS 22.0. Results: Overall, both prevalence of stunting in rural and urban was 33.3% and 30.7%, respectively. Mothers in four groups had moderate nutritional knowledge, with total scores ranging from 70.9 to 75.2. Mothers of NU were found to have more nutritional awareness than NR and SR. In comparison to NR, mothers of NU babies are more likely to be aware that their 2- or 3-month-old infants cannot consume bananas or papayas. Compared to SR, more NU mothers are aware that vegetables do not contain protein. There are more mothers of NU know that sweetened condensed milk is not more nutrient rich compared to powder or liquid milk than NR and SR. Conclusions: Urban mothers have superior nutritional knowledge than rural mothers. Even, knowledge of rural mother with stunted child is the poorest. With the high prevalence of stunting, access to nutritional information should be enhanced, with a focus on the feeding practices of young children.

“…Pengaruh keadaan sanitasi mempengaruhi kondisi individu saat sakit meliputi peluang terjadinya sakit, frekuensi, dan durasi jika terkena penyakit (Aprihatin et al, 2020). Sanitasi dapat menjadi faktor dominan penentu terjadinya stunting karena meliputi kebersihan tempat tinggal, lingkungan bekerja, kebersihan makanan, dan peralatan yang digunakan sehari-hari (Widyaningsih et al, 2022).

<p>Stunting reduction and sanitation have been essential goals in national sustainable development. Nutrition and sanitation education is critical to prevent stunting because children’s growth requires optimal nutrition and a healthy environment. A community service activity was conducted under the health scheme supported by Universitas Siliwangi for 2022 (<em>PbM-SK</em>) in collaboration with the women association members in Sambongsari Village, Tasikmalaya, West Java. Eighteen organisation members who participated in the activity. They were given counselling about the causes of stunting, the impact of stunting, the fulfilment of nutrition, and the effects of sanitation. The purposes of community service activities were to understand the causal factors, the characteristics of stunting, the impact of stunting, and healthy sanitation. Public awareness to consume food containing protein, calcium, and vitamin D, which are essential nutrients. Problems in households with toddlers with chronic diseases such as tuberculosis (TB) are usually less able to distinguish the causes and treatment of diseases with stunting conditions because there are physical growth disorders. Thus, education to prevent stunting is essential so that public understanding is more optimal on the prevention and proper handling of toddlers with stunting characteristics and toddlers who experience certain diseases. The evaluation of stunting and sanitation knowledge in Sambongpari, Tasikmalaya City, showed increased public understanding of stunting and sanitation. However, it was not significant, namely the average value of 36.5 to 68.6. Stunting management strategies closely related to children’s golden period, namely specific nutrition interventions for the First 1,000 Days of Life, can determine brain growth, intelligence, height, and vulnerability to chronic disease risk.</p>

“…Kesenjangan stunting disebabkan oleh perbedaan karakteristik dan respons antara populasi yang kurang dan lebih diuntungkan. Untuk meningkatkan efektivitas program pengurangan stunting, diperlukan intervensi khusus yang disesuaikan untuk mengatasi perbedaan antara populasi yang semakin tidak diuntungkan (Widyaningsih et al, 2022). Bahwa terdapat pengaruh edukasi dengan menggunakan media kartun terhadap pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi anak.…”
