Summary

In 2018, multiple earthquake with magnitude range from 6 to 7 hit Lombok Island, West Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. Following the situational analysis and baseline study in December 2018 (4 months after the first earthquake), it was found that the prevalence of wasting and underweight of underfive children in the affected population is moderate (10.2% and 28.8%) but the prevalence of stunting and anemia is considered of highly significant public health problem (33.3% and 43.8%). Various organizations have provided support at the emergency phase but there is no specific program for nutrition support at the rehabilitation phase.

Draft of intervention model which utilize early child education (ECE) centers as center of nutrition recovery in the community has been discussed with the local education and health officers. Training will be delivered to ECE teachers and community health officers. ECE teachers are expected to have regular parenting class for nutrition education and activities, whilst the community health officers will monitor the activities and provide technical guidance as needed. Mothers of the underfive children will be invited to attend weekly parenting class at nearby ECE center in which they receive messages related to infant and young child feeding (IYCF), including distribution of liver and fish floss as nutrient dense food supplement to their children, and provision of appropriate psychosocial care.This parenting class will be held for 6 months with regular monitoring from the researchers and health personnel from public health center. Effectiveness of the intervention will be assessed in improving IYCF practices and psychosocial care of mothers and nutrient intakes, nutritional status and developmental outcomes of the underfives children.
