Abstract

Stunting merupakan permasalahan gizi yang masih memerlukan perhatian, termasuk di tingkat masyarakat. Pengetahuan ibu mengenai pemberian makan balita berperan dalam mendukung pemenuhan kebutuhan gizi anak. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu tentang pemberian makan balita sebagai upaya mendukung pencegahan stunting di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Bojonggambir. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di Posyandu dengan melibatkan 30 ibu yang memiliki balita. Edukasi diberikan secara interaktif mengenai kebutuhan gizi, pemilihan makanan, frekuensi dan porsi makan, tekstur sesuai usia, serta praktik pemberian makan responsif. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan pretest dan posttest, kemudian dianalisis dengan uji Wilcoxon Signed-Rank. Hasil menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan ibu setelah diberikan edukasi mengenai pemberian makan balita. Hasil uji Wilcoxon menunjukkan adanya peningkatan skor pengetahuan yang signifikan setelah kegiatan edukasi. Edukasi pemberian makan balita menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan ibu dan dapat menjadi strategi promotif untuk mendukung praktik pemberian makan yang tepat dalam upaya pencegahan stunting di tingkat masyarakat.
