Malnutrition issues is an important health issue in many countries, especially in

developing countries. Among the few malnutrition cases, stunting becomes the case

with the highest prevalence for undernutrition case groups. Stunting affects many

things, one of them is education, both in the short and long term. This study analyses

the impact of stunting children in 2000 on the duration of schooling of basic

education in Indonesia. Using cross-section data with IFLS data sources from 2000

to 2014, this analysis was conducted with a Multivariable Linear regression

method. The results showed that stunting did not significantly affect the duration of

schooling of basic education. Other variables such as the number of siblings and

working status have positive and significant effects. Also, father's education and

residence have negative and significant impact on the duration of schooling.
