Background: Stunting remains a serious nutritional problem in Indonesia, affecting child growth, cognitive development, and future productivity. One preventive measure is to utilise nutritious local foods. Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera) contain vitamins A and C, calcium, iron, and vegetable protein that support child growth, making them a potential ingredient for healthy foods that are accepted by the community. Objective: This programme aims to reduce the risk of stunting through nutrition education and training in processing moringa leaves into nutritious pudding, while also improving the community's skills in utilising local resources in Pringrejo Village. Method: The activity involved PKK cadres from RT 01/RW 08 using an educational and participatory approach. The methods included nutrition education, demonstrations, practical moringa leaf pudding making, and interactive discussions. Participants also received educational media in the form of visual materials, recipes, and simple booklets. Results: Participants demonstrated an increased understanding of balanced nutrition to prevent stunting and new skills in processing moringa leaves. Positive responses were seen in the enthusiasm of the participants during the practice and their willingness to apply it at home. Moringa leaves proved to be easy to process into nutritious products that are beneficial for health and have economic potential. Conclusion: Nutrition education and moringa leaf processing training in Pringrejo Village effectively increased community awareness of nutrition and skills. This programme can be a model for sustainable community intervention for stunting prevention based on local food.
