Efforts to reduce stunting prevalence at the local level continue to be intensified by the police. Through Bhabinkamtibmas personnel, Ngestiharjo Police held nutrition education and Family Planning counseling targeting young women in their community area.
This program is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the importance of nutritional fulfillment starting in adolescence. Given that young women are future mothers, education on reproductive health and a balanced diet is considered a crucial pillar in breaking the chain of stunting before conception occurs.
In addition to highlighting the importance of nutritional intake to prevent anemia and growth disorders, the activity also provided a discussion space for teenagers regarding healthy lifestyles. The persuasive approach taken by the officers is expected to instill collective awareness about the importance of health from an early age in order to realize a superior and stunting-free future generation.
