Empowerment of Parents with Stunting Children
Abstract
Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem facing the world. Parental empowerment is necessary for stunting prevention. The main goal of this paper is to systematically review the literature to identify parental empowerment interventions and interventions to improve nutritional status in children, especially stunted children. This Systematic Review uses the PRISMA method, identifies articles published in English, in the last five years (2017 to 022) through data based on ClinicalKey, ProQuest, SAGE Journal, Scopus, Science Direct, JSTOR, and EBSCO Host, and produces eight relevant literature. The results show a significant relationship between parental empowerment and the nutritional status of children. Parental empowerment is an effort to improve knowledge and skills as well as parents' self-confidence about the care, upbringing, and development of children. Indicators of parental empowerment are assessed based on education, employment, income, and parents' ability to make decisions. Interventions to improve the ability of mothers in the care of stunted children can be carried out through the assistance of health workers in the parenting process. Interventions to improve children's nutritional status through education to mothers about nutrition and nutrition delivery strategies, independently and across sectors. Z score from WHO is the most relevant nutritional status assessment indicator used.

Hasil dari analisis yang dilakukan mengidentifikasi ada hubungan yang signifikan antara pemberdayaan orangtua dengan status gizi anak. Pemberdayaan orangtua merupakan upaya untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan serta rasa percaya diri orangtua tentang perawatan, pengasuhan dan perkembangan anak. Indikator pemberdayaan orangtua dinilai berdasarkan pendidikan, pekerjaan, penghasilan dan kemampuan orangtua dalam pengambilan keputusan. Intervensi untuk meningkatkan kemampuan ibu dalam pengasuhan anak stunting dapat dilakukan melalui pendampingan petugas kesehatan dalam proses pengasuhan.
