Breastfeeding is a biological reproduction process and a natural feeding habit with a major impact on improving the health of individual families and the global community.
This research aims to create a collaborative model for the role of husbands and health workers in improving mother's behaviour towards providing exclusive breastfeeding. This research used a qualitative method, while data were collected using in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The informants were the chairpersons of the Barru Regency Indonesian Midwives Association, the Head of the Mangkoso Health Community Center, health workers, the persons in charge of nutrition program, cadres, husbands, and pregnant women. The research results of in-depth interviews found that the husband's role in supporting exclusive breastfeeding was very low, due to the lack of understanding, while the health worker's role was controlled by midwives. There was no roles' division between nutrition workers and cadres. Therefore, Focus Group Discussion (FGD) results formed a collaborative model for the role of health workers and husbands in supporting exclusive breastfeeding, by dividing their respective roles from the third trimester of pregnancy until the 6th month. The midwives and nutrition officers provided education for pregnant women and their husbands regarding exclusive breastfeeding. The cadres' role included, controlling exclusive breastfeeding, as well as the husband's role by making house visits within 6 months. The collaborative model was made in the form of a module containing the roles of each health worker and husband, starting from the third trimester of pregnancy until the 6th month.
