Malnutrition remains a significant issue facing Indonesian society. Improving nutrition is a key target of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a global development agreement.

This malnutrition problem not only affects health but also poses challenges to national human resource (HR) development, given the long-term impact of nutritional problems on the quality of life and productivity of the population.

The Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) reports that 12,183 villages/sub-districts across the country have populations suffering from malnutrition.

Of this number, East Nusa Tenggara has the highest number of villages/sub-districts with malnourished populations, at 1,671. This is followed by East Java and Central Java with 1,418 and 1,361 villages respectively.

Several factors contribute to malnutrition in Indonesia, including inadequate food consumption in terms of quantity and nutritional composition, infectious diseases, and poverty, which prevents the fulfillment of nutritional needs.
