description |
In the 1980's Indonesia became an
example for other countries concerned with reducing high
levels of malnutrition. At the time, Indonesia had started
nutrition programming and surveillance at the village level
using the integrated weighing and child health posts, or
Posyandu. In the ensuing decades there have been successes:
small scale and bigger scale interventions that reduced
malnutrition. At the same time, there have been set-backs,
loss of attention, other priorities, decentralization, weak
management and poor governance. In August 2017, the
Indonesian government unveiled a new strategy to accelerate
reductions in rates of stunting. This book looks at what
will be required to turn that strategy - the National
Strategy to Accelerate Stunting Prevention (StraNas
Stunting) 2017-2021 – from vision into reality. It looks at
the country's ambitious reforms and goals to reduce
stunting. It examines the government's plans to boost
awareness about the economic, social and personal cost of
stunting, to ensure a truly national
"multi-sectoral" effort to tackle the problem at
scale in a coordinated and cohesive fashion in communities
across Indonesia. It chronicles past successes and setbacks,
drawing lessons from them about the future. We think
Indonesia is on a path towards new success: this time at
scale. It is a story worthtelling. |
