        "summary": "The Indonesian government is reinforcing its commitment to tackling stunting by enhancing cross-sector coordination and deploying precision data. A name-and-address based approach will be used to identify and target priority groups more accurately. This initiative, supported by a World Bank programme, aims to integrate interventions across multiple dimensions including health, sanitation, and socioeconomic factors.",
        "content": "<p>The government continues to strengthen its commitment to accelerating\nthe reduction of stunting prevalence through enhanced cross-sector\ncoordination and collaboration for more precise stunting data. Secretary\nof the Ministry of Population and Family Development\n(Sesmendukbangga)\/Principal Secretary of BKKBN Budi Setiyono emphasised\nthe importance of implementing a precision data-based approach using\nnames and addresses (by name by address) as the primary instrument to\nsupport intervention effectiveness. \u201cThis approach allows the government\nto more accurately identify individuals, families, and regions requiring\npriority attention, so that programmes implemented can reach the target\ngroups that truly need them,\u201d Budi stated in Jakarta on Thursday. He\nalso stressed that strengthening the data system must be carried out\ncontinuously through improving the quality of data collection,\nvalidation, periodic updating, and data integration between ministries\nand agencies. \u201cKemendukbangga\/BKKBN has so far built a database of\nfamilies at risk of stunting down to the village\/sub-district level,\nwhich can serve as a basis for intervention by cross-ministry\/agency and\nregional governments,\u201d Budi said. He further affirmed that strong\ncoordination is not only necessary at the central level but must also be\nrealised down to the regional level, where regional governments play a\ncrucial role as the frontline implementers of programmes because they\ndeal directly with the community and understand the conditions and needs\nof their respective regions. \u201cTherefore, policy support, technical\nassistance, and capacity building for regional governments need to be\ncontinuously enhanced to ensure the successful implementation of\nprogrammes,\u201d he said. This will ultimately yield significant results in\nimproving the quality of life for the community and developing superior,\nhealthy, and competitive Indonesian human resources to capitalise on the\ndemographic bonus and achieve the Golden Indonesia 2045 vision. The\nInvesting in Nutrition and Early Years (INEY) Programme from the World\nBank and the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) also serves\nas a strategic forum to strengthen synergy among ministries and agencies\nin realising more integrated, targeted, and sustainable stunting\nreduction efforts. Collaboration between parties is crucial because\nstunting is a multidimensional problem that is not only related to\naspects of nutritional intake and health but is also closely linked to\nenvironmental quality, access to clean water and adequate sanitation,\nfood security, education, social protection, family empowerment, and the\nsocioeconomic conditions of the community. \u201cEfforts to accelerate\nstunting reduction cannot be carried out partially or sectorally but\nrequire policy alignment, programme synchronisation, and strong\ncoordination at all levels of government,\u201d Budi said.<\/p>",
