13 Aug 2025

JAKARTA, 22 July 2025 – PTT Exploration and Production Public Company Limited (PTTEP) Indonesia together with Dompet Dhuafa hosted a capacity building training for Integrated Service Post (Posyandu) cadres at the DD Rorotan Clinic, North Jakarta, on Tuesday (22/7). This activity aims to strengthen nutritional literacy and improve cadre skills in maternal and child health services.

Posyandu cadres are the spearhead of basic health services in the community. They act as mobilizers, implementers, and liaisons between the community and health workers. However, limited information and technical skills often become challenges in carrying out their duties optimally.

Through this training, cadres are provided with comprehensive knowledge regarding pregnancy care, childbirth, the postpartum period, newborn care, monitoring child growth and development, as well as balanced nutrition practices for mothers and children. Apart from that, the training also includes early detection skills for health risks and educational techniques for the community.

Saryanti (49) Posyandu Bugenvil, Rorotan, North Jakarta "Thank you very much to PTTEP and Dompet Dhuafa because after participating in this event the knowledge was very useful for us and the event was good, the venue was also comfortable, hopefully next year there will be an event like this again here."

This activity was also attended by dr. Dilla Aprilia, who provided materials and direct assistance to participants. Dozens of residents also attended and showed high enthusiasm in participating in the series of activities.

"Great Cadres for a Healthy Generation. With the role of Posyandu cadres, they can monitor the nutritional status of toddlers through weighing and measuring (BB, TB, LK), educating parents about the importance of immunization and early detection of delays in children's development," said Dr. Dilla Aprilia.

PTTEP Indonesia, in collaboration with Dompet Dhuafa, hopes that this training can strengthen the role of Posyandu cadres as agents of change in developing family and community health in their respective work areas.
