TLDR
Light is shed on potential determinants of feeding practices among children above 6 months of age in Indonesia using combinations of different search terms to get a better understanding on factors related to the environment and society as well as on how they are related with each other and operate in different contexts.Abstract:
Background: Feeding practices among young children are not optimal in Indonesia. Improving these practices is crucial to prevent and reduce malnutrition among young children. A better understanding of the underlying factors to appropriate practices is essential to address barriers and identify opportunities to optimal practices. This paper aims to shed light on potential determinants of feeding practices among children above 6 months of age. Methods: A systematic research of several databases using combinations of different search terms: feeding, child, Indonesia, MPASI/complementary food, gizi/nutrition, factor, determinant, praktek/practices was conducted. All documents were reviewed using a three-step procedure to assess content appropriateness and research quality. Data were analyzed using the Hector's framework on behaviour change. Results: Available data on individual factors influencing feeding practices related mainly to mother's attributes, namely knowledge, perceptions, attitudes, beliefs and skills. Some of them are positively linked to good practices. Some environmental-related factors such as health services, home and peer environment were conducive to improved practices. Studies on societal factors were mostly restricted to food systems which do not favour optimal feeding practices. Conclusions: The review provides insights on underlying factors conducive to optimal feeding practices. Yet, relevant and quality research is required to get a better understanding on factors related to the environment and society as well as on how they are related with each other and operate in different contexts. Indonesia has already experimented successful programs which can be used as a reference to strengthen young child feeding practices.read more

Complementary feeding practices and nutritional status of children 6-23 months old: formative study in Aceh, Indonesia.
TL;DR: Suboptimal CF practices and high prevalence of underweight, wasting and stunting were found among children aged 6–23 months old in Aceh, highlighting the need to improve CF and nutritional status.

Trends and factors associated with complementary feeding practices in Ethiopia from 2005 to 2016.
TL;DR: The analysis of the EDHS suggests that the proportion of MDD and MAD were unacceptably low and interventions aiming to improve complementary feeding practices in Ethiopia should also target mothers with low education, antenatal service usage, and media exposure.

Local-food-based complementary feeding for the nutritional status of children ages 6-36 months in rural areas of Indonesia.
TL;DR: The NFCPP program with LFCF intervention can improve the nutritional status of children in rural areas and should be implemented as a sustained program for better provision of complementary feeding during the period of lactation using local food made available at community health centers.

TL;DR: The high mortality and disease burden resulting from these nutrition-related factors make a compelling case for the urgent implementation of interventions to reduce their occurrence or ameliorate their consequences.

TL;DR: The findings show that the interventions needed to achieve the millennium development goal of reducing child mortality by two-thirds by 2015 are available, but that they are not being delivered to the mothers and children who need them.

TL;DR: To eliminate stunting in the longer term, existing interventions that were designed to improve nutrition and prevent related disease could reduce stunting at 36 months by 36%; mortality between birth and 36 monthsBy about 25%; and disability-adjusted life-years associated with stunting, severe wasting, intrauterine growth restriction, and micronutrient deficiencies by about 25%.

Maternal and Child Nutrition 2 Evidence-based interventions for improvement of maternal and child nutrition: what can be done and at what cost?
TL;DR: Improved access for nutrition-sensitive approaches can greatly accelerate progress in countries with the highest burden of maternal and child undernutrition and mortality, if this improved access is linked to nutrition- sensitive approaches.
