Local Wisdom Satu Tungku Tiga Batu for Stunting Reduction through Multisector Collaboration

This study analyzes the collaborative practice of Satu Tungku Tiga Batu in stunting prevention in Fakfak Regency, Indonesia, as a local wisdom-based governance model. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observations, and document analysis involving 17 key informants from government, traditional, and religious leaders. Data analysis employed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, supported by triangulation of methods, sources, and theories grounded in collaborative governance and Country Collaboration Theory. The findings indicate that Satu Tungku Tiga Batu strengthens social trust, role equality, and collaborative commitment through the Wewowo forum as a co-determination space. The collaboration achieved a ‘small victory’ by initiating revisions to Regent Regulation No. 62 of 2022 to formally involve traditional and religious leaders. This study concludes that integrating local cultural values fosters inclusive, participatory, and sustainable collaborative governance in stunting management.
