They are not just numbers

The stunting prevalence rate in Indonesia in 2021 will decrease to 24.4%. In line with President Joko Widodo's target of 14% in 2024, the national stunting prevalence rate has decreased since 2018 where the figure reached 30.8%, while in 2019 and 2020 the figures were at 27.7% and 26.92. %.

Even though there is a decline, there are still many conditions in the community who do not understand what stunting is. How to dispel the nightmare of demographic bonuses, if the grassroots is still far from the reach of education.

Although the numbers are important to describe how terrible stunting and malnutrition are, overcoming them is not only based on numerical calculations. Because they are real, not just numbers.
