Tujuan kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PKM) ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan kader Posyandu dalam pengolahan Makanan Pendamping Air Susu Ibu (MP-ASI) berbasis pangan lokal. Inti permasalahan yang dihadapi yaitu masih terbatasnya pengetahuan dan keterampilan kader Posyandu dalam menyediakan MP-ASI yang bergizi, aman, dan sesuai kebutuhan tumbuh kembang anak, sehingga berpotensi memengaruhi kualitas gizi balita di masyarakat. Metode pemecahan yang digunakan meliputi pelatihan, demonstrasi langsung, serta pendampingan intensif kepada kader Posyandu. Kegiatan ini diikuti oleh 30 kader Posyandu dan terlaksana dengan baik serta lancar. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan kader sebesar 70,4% serta peningkatan keterampilan kader dalam pengolahan MP-ASI lokal sebesar 41,9% setelah intervensi. Simpulan dari kegiatan ini adalah pelatihan dan pendampingan kader Posyandu terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan kapasitas kader, khususnya terkait pengetahuan dan keterampilan pengolahan MP-ASI berbasis pangan lokal. Kegiatan PKM ini berimplikasi pada meningkatnya kapasitas kader Posyandu dalam penyediaan MP-ASI berbasis pangan lokal yang bergizi dan aman, sehingga diharapkan dapat berkontribusi pada peningkatan kualitas gizi anak, pencegahan masalah gizi (stunting, gizi kurang), serta mendukung terciptanya generasi sehat dan produktif di masyarakat, sehingga diharapkan berdampak pada perbaikan status gizi anak di masyarakat.
Community Service Program: Enhancing the Role of Posyandu Cadres through the KEY MESSAGE Method to Overcome Stunting
The objective of this Community Service (PKM) activity is to improve the knowledge and skills of Posyandu cadres in processing complementary foods for breast milk (MP-ASI) based on local foods. The core problem faced is the limited knowledge and skills of Posyandu cadres in providing nutritious, safe, and developmentally appropriate MP-ASI, which has the potential to affect the nutritional quality of toddlers in the community. The methods used to solve this problem include training, live demonstrations, and intensive mentoring of Posyandu cadres. This activity was attended by 30 Posyandu cadres and was carried out smoothly and successfully. The results of the activity showed a 70.4% increase in the cadres' knowledge and a 41.9% increase in their skills in processing local MP-ASI after the intervention. The conclusion of this activity is that training and mentoring of Posyandu cadres is proven to be effective in increasing the capacity of cadres, particularly in relation to knowledge and skills in processing locally-based MP-ASI. This PKM activity has implications for increasing the capacity of Posyandu cadres in providing nutritious and safe locally-based complementary foods, which is expected to contribute to improving children's nutritional quality, preventing nutritional problems (stunting, malnutrition), and supporting the creation of a healthy and productive generation in the community, thereby improving the nutritional status of children in the community.
