Abstract

Malnutrition, including stunting, is an urgent health issue in Indonesia, particularly in rural areas such as Jatisari Village. The high prevalence of stunting affects the quality of human resources and long-term development. As catalysts, university students play a strategic role in driving nutrition literacy programs through an integrated and comprehensive approach. This study aims to enhance students’ contributions in strengthening nutrition literacy in Jatisari Village through a community engagement program involving active participation from various stakeholders, including local residents, healthcare workers, and village authorities. To achieve detailed and comprehensive research results, the methods employed include field surveys to identify community needs, in-depth interviews to explore challenges faced by local residents, and the implementation of collaboratively designed nutrition education programs. The results indicate that student involvement in nutrition education programs successfully increased community knowledge about healthy eating patterns within the first three months of implementation. The program also enhanced consciousness of the importance of sustainable stunting prevention efforts. In conclusion, students significantly contribute to the structured advancement of nutrition literacy programs, supporting efforts to create a stunting-free Jatisari Village sustainably. This survey highlights that cross-sectoral collaboration with active student participation can create extensive and long-term positive impacts on rural communities.
