Abstract

Stunting is a chronic malnutrition problem caused by a lack of nutritional intake for a long time, resulting in growth problems in children, namely the child's height is lower or shorter (stunted) than the standard age. This important role has encouraged Pakistaji Village to continue to improve healthy lifestyles among children in order to prevent stunting. The Community Service Program at Panca Marga University that has been carried out so far for Pakistaji residents is deemed to have gone well. The counseling that has been carried out in connection with the Community Service Program at Panca Marga University is the distribution of pamphlets in order to provide knowledge to the community regarding stunting, stunting counseling to Riyadlus Solihin Pakistaji's student guardians, the “Let's Drink Milk” campaign to Riyadlus Solihin's students, as well as several activities that related to stunting prevention. The results obtained at this time were that the participants felt that their knowledge was increased, their awareness was awakened, and their expertise was added. It is hoped that in the future this activity will continue and will continue to provide meaning to both parties, namely UPM and the community in Pakistaji Village. In addition, it is hoped that there will be many other parties who are willing to be involved in this service activity, especially parties from external to UPM, so that this activity can create many networks for all parties.
 Keywords: Stunting, Extension.
