Is the PD Program Sustainable?<br />

By Dewi Saparini – PCI<br />

y design, the PD approach should be sustainable<br />

because new behaviors are internalized<br />

B<br />

and continue after the PD NERS (Positive Deviance<br />

Nutrition Education and Rehabilitation Session)<br />

ends. The PD NERP (Positive Deviance Nutrition Education<br />

and Rehabilitation Program) not only<br />

changes the behaviors of individual families, but<br />

also changes how a community perceives malnutrition<br />

and their ability to change the situation, if necessary,<br />

with only local inputs. PCI has proven that<br />

this methodology works. After PCI ended its material<br />

support at the<br />

end of March 2004,<br />

the two different<br />

communities in<br />

Tanah Tinggi and<br />

Cengkareng Barat<br />

respectively took<br />

over the responsibility<br />

of providing financial<br />

support for the<br />

three existing NERS.<br />

The two RW Health<br />

Committees succeded<br />

in convincing<br />

their community<br />

leaders, RW staff and<br />

local potential donors<br />

through community<br />

meetings and<br />

door to door visits.<br />

When Ibu Amran (Health Committee) and Ibu Evie (<br />

a volunteer ) from Tanah Tinggi promoted the PD<br />

NERP to the community leader and local potential<br />

donors, they received positive support from the local<br />

leaders as well as some money and were asked<br />

whether they needed other food contributions.<br />

Pertemuan masyarakat membahas program keberlanjutan Pos Gizi di Tanah<br />

Tinggi/Community meeting for PD-NERS sustainability in Tanah Tinggi<br />

The 13 RT in RW 07 Cengkareng Barat are committed<br />

to providing Rp 10,000,- respectively on a<br />

monthly basis. In the first month the committee succeeded<br />

in collecting a total of Rp 210,00,- enough<br />

to conduct 2 NERS with 15 malnourished children<br />

under 3 years old per NERS. In RW 08 - Tanah Tinggi<br />

each RT donated between Rp 10,000 – 30,000 on a<br />

voluntary basis and succeeded in having enough<br />

funding to conduct 1 NERS with 10 participants.<br />

These two communities have completed 2 PD NERS<br />

with their own resources and they have asked PCI<br />

Apakah Program PD Berkelanjutan<br />

Oleh Dewi Saparini - PCI<br />

ada dasarnya, pendekatan PD seharusnya berkesinambungan<br />

karena perilaku baru di-praktekan<br />

P<br />

terus menerus setelah kegiatan PD-Pos Gizi. Program<br />

Pemulihan dan Pendidikan Gizi dengan metode PD,<br />

tidak hanya merubah perilaku keluarga secara individu,<br />

tetapi juga merubah cara berpikir masyarakat terhadap<br />

masalah kekurangan gizi dan bagaimana menggunakan<br />

kemampuan mereka sendiri untuk merubah<br />

situasi tersebut sedapat mungkin hanya dengan bahanbahan<br />

setempat. PCI telah membuktikan bahwa<br />

pendekatan ini menjamin kesinambungan. Setelah PCI<br />

mengakhiri bantuan material<br />

pada akhir Maret<br />

2004, dua kelompok<br />

masyarakat di Tanah<br />

Tinggi dan Cengkareng<br />

Barat masing-masing<br />

mengambil alih tanggung<br />

jawab dalam meyediakan<br />

dana penyelenggaraan<br />

3 Pos Gizi yang<br />

ada. Dua Tim Kesehatan<br />

RW berhasil meya-kinkan<br />

tokoh masyarakat<br />

mereka, pengurus RW/RT<br />

dan donor lokal potensial<br />

melalui pertemuan<br />

masyarakat maupun kunjungan<br />

kerumah-rumah.<br />

Ketika Ibu Amran (Tim Kesehatan<br />

RW) dan Ibu Evie<br />

(seorang kader) dari<br />

Tanah Tinggi mempromosikan program PD-Pos Gizi<br />

kepada tokoh masyarakat dan donor lokal potensial ,<br />

mereka sangat mendukung dan langsung menyumbangkan<br />

dana bahkan menanyakan apakah mereka<br />

dapat menyumbang dalam bentuk bahan makanan<br />

lain.<br />

Tiga belas RT di RW 7 Cengkareng Barat bertekad memberi<br />

iuran bulanan masing-masing sebesar Rp 10.000,-<br />

Pada bulan pertama mereka berhasil mengumpulkan<br />

dana sebesar Rp 210.000,-yang cukup untuk membiayai<br />

penyelenggaraan 2 Pos Gizi dengan peserta 15 anak<br />

batita kurang gizi per pos. Di RW 08 – Tanah Tinggi<br />

setiap RT menyumbang antara Rp 10.000 – Rp 30.000.,<br />

berdasarkan kemampuan masing-masing dan dianggap<br />

memadai untuk mendanai penyelenggaraan 1 Pos<br />

Gizi dengan jumlah 10 peserta<br />

Kedua kelompok masyarakat tersebut telah menyelesaikan<br />

2 sesi Pos Gizi dengan menggunakan sumber<br />
