Abstract: Stunting is one of the major public health issues in Indonesia that requires serious attention from various stakeholders. It is a growth and developmental disorder in children caused by chronic malnutrition, recurrent infections, and inadequate psychosocial stimulation. Children are classified as stunted if their height-for-age is below minus two standard deviations from the World Health Organization (WHO) child growth standards. One of the community-level strategies to prevent and reduce stunting is the consumption of nutritious foods rich in protein and fiber, such as shrimp croquettes. Shrimp croquettes are a nutritious, easy-to-make household food product that holds potential as an alternative dietary solution in efforts to combat stunting in Indonesia. This community engagement program focuses on empowering local residents through training in the preparation of shrimp croquettes as an affordable and practical healthy food option. The program is expected not only to enhance participants’ understanding of balanced nutrition in stunting prevention but also to encourage the adoption of sustainable and independent healthy eating practices. Evaluating changes in community knowledge and behavior regarding nutrition before and after the program is essential to measure the effectiveness of the intervention and to inform the development of future community service initiatives. Keywords: shrimp croquette; nutritious food; stunting
