Therefore, efforts are needed to improve access to formal financial services, modern financial knowledge, and supporting infrastructure to improve financial management and economic stability of traditional fishermen.

The utilization of mapping to improve the quality of community development in rural areas

Selayar Regency occupies the sixth position for stunting in South Sulawesi, with a prevalence of 32.1%. This problem is exacerbated by the community's limited access to information about stunting, so educational efforts are needed to disseminate stunting information presented using spatial mapping patterns. This activity aimed to develop village maps and identify high-stunting areas using spatial maps to improve the quality of community development. This map-making activity begins with data collection, and then data processing is carried out using ArcGIS software, digitization methods, and spatial analysis in the form of overlay analysis. Maps that have gone through the layout stage are then printed and submitted to the village government and health workers. The utilization of this map of strategic locations such as village offices, health centers, and local nutrition centers assesses the success of this services activity as a source of information in determining priority steps in preventing and handling stunting cases.

Pengembangan Aplikasi Stunting Care untuk Pemantauan Pertumbuhan Anak

Recording the results of conventional child growth measurements in the Maternal and Child Health book has long been carried out by health workers and posyandu cadres at the Bontoharu Community Health Center, Selayar Regency, and posyandu cadres in Bontotangnga Village. This form of recording takes quite a lot of time, is prone to errors, and the results do not display attractive visualizations, so a reliable form of recording is needed to monitor children's growth as an effort to prevent and treat stunting. The method used in this community service is Community Based Research (CBR). To overcome the problem of stunting early, the Stunting Care application was developed. Stunting Care is an application for monitoring children's growth periodically by entering data on the child's height and weight. This application will provide predicted results for children, whether they are stunting, at risk of stunting, normal or high normal and is equipped with various features. The Stunting Care application was developed using agile development software engineering methods and through black box testing. The test results of the Stunting Care application are classified as good, as indicated by the system functionality running smoothly.
