Poor or insufficient nutrition can have serious impacts, especially on vulnerable groups such as toddlers, pregnant women and the elderly. Malnutrition not only has a direct impact on physical health conditions, but can also hinder optimal growth and development, both physically and mentally. Objective: The aim of this study to evaluate the implementation of the malnutrition prevention program in the Cendrawasih Health Center work area, Makassar City in 2023. Method: This type of research is qualitative research. The samples for this research are community health center staff, stakeholders and program users. Results: Evaluation of the malnutrition prevention program in the Cendrawasih Health Center working area, Makassar City is based on Context, Input, Process and Product analysis. The research results show that in terms of social and cultural conditions, some communities pay less attention to children's nutrition. Input is in the form of funds used, namely BOK funds and funds from the local government. Apart from that, the availability of human resources is inadequate. The facilities and infrastructure used are quite complete with the availability of anthropometric tools. Process Growth monitoring is carried out by community health center officers and posyandu cadres every 10 days. Product The nutritional status of toddlers is starting to improve, this is proven by the number of cases which has decreased. Mothers' knowledge about the characteristics or signs that children are experiencing malnutrition is still lacking. Apart from that, mothers still don't fully understand parenting patterns for toddlers. Conclusion: The evaluation of the malnutrition prevention program at the Cendrawasih Community Health Center in 2023 is still not going well because the input is not adequate, the process has not been carried out optimally so that the product produced does not meet the achievement targets. Efforts that can be made include active cadres in socializing children's nutrition. Apart from that, counseling efforts regarding malnutrition among pregnant women also continue to be increased.
