Analysis of Complementary Feeding (MPASI) Data and Local Supplementary Feeding (PMT) Programs, 2025
Executive Summary
Indonesia is intensifying its commitment to improving maternal and child nutrition by expanding locally sourced supplementary feeding (PMT Lokal) and complementary feeding (MPASI) programs. To ensure these interventions are as effective as possible, robust and policy-relevant analyses of routine program and nutrition data from national information systems are essential. In response, Reconstra, in partnership with UNICEF and national stakeholders, is leading a strategic study to generate actionable evidence that will inform targeted program improvements and policy refinement.
As lead consultant and technical partner, Reconstra provides comprehensive leadership in methodological design, analytical framework development, and quality assurance. The study employs a rigorous secondary data analysis approach, leveraging national and subnational routine datasets on PMT Lokal and MPASI implementation. Systematic analyses of program coverage, beneficiary profiles, service delivery indicators, and nutrition outcomes are conducted. The methodology integrates structured data cleaning, consistency checks, trend analysis, cross-dataset triangulation, and analytical synthesis to identify implementation patterns, performance gaps, and opportunities for improvement. Results are distilled into policy-focused reports, data visualizations, and decision-support tools.
Structured in clear phases of methodological development, analysis, and dissemination, the study strengthens the use of routine data for strategic decision-making. Anticipated impacts include improved evidence-based planning, greater program efficiency, and enhanced institutional capacity for data-driven nutrition programming. Through its expertise, analytical rigor, and institutional leadership, Reconstra plays a pivotal role in advancing evidence-based nutrition policy and supporting Indonesia’s national nutrition priorities.
