Stunting problems cannot be solved by one party, but it needs intervention from the other party.

Furthermore, the data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the implementation of collaborative governance as measured by the dynamics of collaboration, namely principled engagement, shared motivation, and overall joint action capacity has been quite good, but some indicators have not gone well, namely the communication forum is not available specifically at the District Government level and still lack of private roles. Collaboration actions are in the form of innovation in preventing stunting activities, the implementation of which there are inhibitory factors such as rejection from the community, unhealthy environmental conditions, and the work of parents that affect parenting patterns in children as well as supporting factors such as human resources, natural resources, and budget. The impact of collaborative governance is the decrease in stunting rates and more educated communities. This collaboration resulted in an institutional design in the form of a pattern of accountability.
