This study aims to find the concept of value and wisdom in the Mee tribe community for the developmental strength of the nation's children in Paniai Papua in the process of pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting. This study uses a qualitative approach. This research was conducted on the Mee Tribe in Paniai District, which is in the mountainous region of Papua, Indonesia in May-October 2018. Data collection was carried out by in-depth interviews and observations. Interviews were conducted on 25 informants selected by purposive procedures, which consisted of mothers, pregnant women, nursing mothers, tribal heads and health workers. The Mee tribe marks pregnancy as the initial process of the birth of a new life in the family so it is very important to maintain the health of the baby, mother and family safety. For that, food, equipment, activities, and customs must be considered because it is believed to determine the process of pregnancy. When pregnant, the mother of the Mee tribe consumed a lot of shrimp which was her own catch. In the pattern of parenting, mothers carry out a care procession that strongly emphasizes local wisdom and culture, such as using noken, leaves, stoves and embers and the presence of large events involving large families and villages in welcoming children born.
