## Abstract
Abstract Stunting, identified as a physiological state characterized by children experiencing a height below the expected standard for their age, represents a crucial measure for evaluating public health. Primary determinants contributing to stunting encompass enduring malnutrition and recurrent infections, particularly during the initial 1,000 days of a child’s life. Research indicates that stunting leads to persistent consequences on cognitive development, economic productivity, and overall well-being throughout adulthood. This study performs a comprehensive analysis of existing literature concerning the relationship between poverty and stunting, with a specific emphasis on socioeconomic assessments within vulnerable populations. Employing a research methodology involving a bibliometric review of publications sourced from the Scopus Database regarding poverty and stunting within a socioeconomic context spanning from 1980 to 2024, the outcomes reveal a notable surge in scholarly work on poverty and stunting, notably in the medical and nursing fields, highlighting the health aspects of stunted children. The investigation emphasizes the significance of interdisciplinary approaches in comprehending and addressing stunting, emphasizing the necessity for cooperation across the realms of health, economics, and education. The thematic examination brings to light deficiencies in research, particularly in investigating the intricate interplay between poverty and the prevalence of stunting. To conclude, a comprehensive and enduring strategy is imperative for diminishing stunting rates, given the socioeconomic factors influencing the accessibility of nutritious food, healthcare services, and adequate sanitation.
