“…Another study conducted in rural Zimbabwe employing cluster-randomized trials found that WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) practices implemented in rural areas are unlikely to reduce stunting [ 16 ]. However, few studies found that sanitation and defecation significantly affect stunting among children [ 24 ]. A study conducted in Indian settings utilizing NFHS data concluded that the practice of open defecation influences the inequality in stunting [ 35 ].…”

Background With increasing urbanization in India, child growth among urban poor has emerged as a paramount public health concern amidst the continuously growing slum population and deteriorating quality of life. This study analyses child undernutrition among urban poor and non-poor and decomposes the contribution of various factors influencing socio-economic inequality. This paper uses data from two recent rounds of National Family Health Survey (NFHS-3&4) conducted during 2005–06 and 2015–16. Methods The concentration index (CI) and the concentration curve (CC) measure socio-economic inequality in child growth in terms of stunting, wasting, and underweight. Wagstaff decomposition further analyses key contributors in CI by segregating significant covariates into five groups-mother’s factor, health-seeking factors, environmental factors, child factors, and socio-economic factors. Results The prevalence of child undernutrition was more pronounced among children from poor socio-economic strata. The concentration index decreased for stunting (− 0.186 to − 0.156), underweight (− 0.213 to − 0.162) and wasting (− 0.116 to − 0.045) from 2005 to 06 to 2015–16 respectively. The steepness in growth was more among urban poor than among urban non-poor in every age interval. Maternal education contributed about 19%, 29%, and 33% to the inequality in stunting, underweight and wasting, respectively during 2005–06. During 2005–06 as well as 2015–16, maternal factors (specifically mother’s education) were the highest contributory factors in explaining rich-poor inequality in stunting as well as underweight. More than 85% of the economic inequality in stunting, underweight, and wasting among urban children were explained by maternal factors, environmental factors, and health-seeking factors. Conclusion All the nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions in urban areas should be prioritized, focusing on urban poor, who are often clustered in low-income slums. Rich-poor inequality in child growth calls out for integration and convergence of nutrition interventions with policy interventions aimed at poverty reduction. There is also a need to expand the scope of the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) program to provide mass education regarding nutrition and health by making provisions of home visits of workers primarily focusing on pregnant and lactating mothers.

“…The existing reality is not the real reality, but the result of all kinds of constructions carried out by the parties involved in it. The critical paradigm tries to define social science as a process that critically seeks to reveal the real structures of illusions, false needs that are visible from the material world intending to form a social awareness to improve and change the conditions of human life (Liem et al, 2019).

The government decided to make temporary policies due to COVID-19 Pandemic. One of the policies is to close schools temporarily and conduct online learning. There are obstacles for people outside Java Island who have inadequate infrastructure concerning online learning, in other words, they are still struggling to apply online learning. Related to the problem in the time of COVID-19 the researchers try to analyze the news which was published by www.solopos.com entitled "Sekolah di Jateng Libur karena Corona, Belajar Pindah ke Ruang Guru?". The researcher uses Fairclough Discourse Analysis method to analyze the news. Besides, www.solopos.com wants to show concerns for its target community due to the government's unfairness. Even though it looks so common, the people of Central Java will easily know what is written not just asking questions, but also trying to convince whether, are they really using RuangGuru to help people around central Java? This research focuses on how we see what is happening in reality. The results, www.solopos.com has their personal importance which can be seen in the selection of vocabularies and their style of how they deliver to their readers, how they selected the attributes of nouns, and many discursive intertextualities which use conjunctions casualties.

“…The firstperson effect had a bigger impact on promotional activities than it did on contribution behaviours and largely mediated the influence of message desirability on promotional behaviours. Liem, Marta, & Panggabean (2019) critically analysed the sanitation behaviour of Indonesians through conversations regarding the effectiveness of a PSA meant to deal with the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia by informing people about poor sanitation behaviour and stunting. Rooted in the fact that PSAs can influence behavioural change, a study proposed a way to improve the automatic smoking detection system by automatically displaying a PSA about the hazard of smoking in public when the sensors triggered an alarm after detecting a certain level of smoke (Arief et al, 2020).…”

Public service announcements (PSAs) are the official way for governments to inform, educate and change public behaviour in order to reduce public health issues, such as Covid-19. This study aims to analyse the types of implicatures in the Covid-19 PSAs published by the Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia in their Instagram account, @kemenkes_ri, in order to fill the research gap on implicature studies in a public health and political contexts. This qualitative descriptive research analysed a data of eleven Covid-19 PSAs which were published from March 2020 to January 2021 according to Grice’s implicature theory. The researchers discovered that PSAs employed conversational implicatures more frequently than conventional implicatures (18%) to deliver their messages, with generalised conversational implicature being more prevalent (64%) than particularised conversational implicature (18%). Conventional implicature was used only in earlier posts when Covid-19 has not been a common knowledge among the public, and once people are already used to the “new normal”, alter PSAs used conversational implicature because the public already have the context of Covid-19. Results of this study illuminated the differences between each type of implicatures and also contributed to the lack of studies of PSAs’ implied meanings, the dearth of implicature studies in a non-classroom context.
