Accelerating stunting reduction requires a social protection system that is adaptive to social, economic, and environmental shocks. This study aims to analyze the interlinkages among elements and across the building blocks of Adaptive Social Protection (ASP) in supporting responses to risks that may exacerbate stunting. The study was conducted in West Bandung Regency (KBB) using an exploratory qualitative approach through Focus Group Discussions, in-depth interviews, and document review. The findings show that although conceptually the four ASP building blocks—institutions, data, financing, and programs—are positioned as equal, in practice a functional hierarchy emerges. Institutions determine mandates and governance, data provide risk information, financing enables response capacity, and programs serve as the front line of implementation for vulnerable groups. When adaptive elements in upstream blocks are weak, downstream blocks lose their operational prerequisites, resulting in slow and poorly targeted responses. These findings enrich the understanding of ASP by demonstrating that in contexts of limited local capacity, relationships among building blocks can shift from non-hierarchical to operationally hierarchical. Strengthening ASP to accelerate stunting reduction should therefore begin with reinforcing institutional capacity, cross-sector governance, and data systems, before addressing financing and program design.
