Turunkan Stunting Melalui Program Dapur Sehat Atasi Stunting (DASHAT) Di Desa Banjaragung Kabupaten Jepara

Abstract

The research aimed to assess the impact of the Healthy Kitchen to Address Stunting (DASHAT) program in 
reducing stunting rates in Banjaragung Village. With a high stunting rate of 18%, this issue is a major focus for the 
UNNES GIAT 9 program. Stunting is primarily caused by inadequate nutrition in toddlers. The implementation involved 
collecting data on DASHAT program recipients, executing the program, and monitoring its impact twice a week. After 
monitoring, positive developments were noted in 15 children, with improvements in final measurement results. The 
research concludes that the DASHAT program has a positive effect and is an effective strategy to reduce stunting in 
Banjaragung Village.
