Abstract

The program "Realizing a Superior Generation: Collective Action to Combat Stunting in Dumai City"is a collaborative initiative aimed at addressing the problem of stunting in Dumai City, particularly in Laksamana Subdistrict. Stunting, which refers to impaired child growth, has serious long-term impacts on children's quality of life and development. This program adopts an educational approach through counseling, training, and simulations to increase public awareness and knowledge about stunting. By actively involving local government, non-profit organizations, volunteers, and the community, the program seeks to create an environment that supports positive change. Through dynamic social interactions during program activities, participants are expected to engage actively in the learning process and develop a shared commitment to combating stunting. By equipping the participants with practical knowledge and fostering a sense of shared commitment, the program lays the groundwork for long-term improvements in child health and well-being. In conclusion, this program represents not only a step toward effective stunting prevention but also a collective determination to build a superior generation and a brighter future for the children of Dumai City.
