Abstract

Brebes Regency is one of the areas with the highest poverty rates in Central Java. In Kluwut Village, although many residents have relatively high incomes as fishermen, poverty still occurs due to suboptimal household financial management and low awareness of children's nutrition and health. This community service program aims to identify the causes of poverty with a multidimensional approach based on Amartya Sen's theory, including fundamental inability, lack of freedom, and inequality. The methods include field observation, interviews with the community and village officials, and secondary data analysis. The results of the study show that the economic potential of Kluwut Village from the fisheries sector is quite large. However, unhealthy financial practices such as the habit of going into debt and high stunting rates are still a problem. Intervention programs such as providing healthy food and “Posyandu” are considered ineffective due to weak supervision and limited budget. Therefore, financial education is needed for fishing families, strengthening stunting interventions, and validating nutritional measurement tools. Continuous collaboration between academics, local governments, and the private sector is required in order to overcome structural poverty and improve the quality of life of the people in Brebes.

Abstract

Unemployment is a challenge in economic development in ASEAN countries because its members are mostly developing countries that have market potential in Asia. Many countries in ASEAN face a mismatch in workforce skills, high levels of workers in the informal sector, and limited job opportunities for less skilled job seekers. Therefore, the government needs to understand how FDI and domestic investment affect unemployment in ASEAN in order to formulate short-term and long-term public policies to optimize investment strategies to create sustainable jobs. This study analyzes the impact of domestic investment per GDP and FDI per GDP on unemployment in ASEAN countries in the period 1999-2023. This study uses the Panel Autoregressive Distributed Lag analysis method to see the short-term and long-term effects. The results of the research show that domestic investment per GDP and unemployment have no impact in the short term but have a negative and significant effect in the long term. Then, FDI per GDP and unemployment have a positive and significant effect in the short term but have a negative and significant effect in the long term. In conclusion, foreign and domestic investment has a role in reducing unemployment in the long term and needs to be encouraged by appropriate policies.

Abstract

This research aims to examine and prove the determinant variables that can reduce poverty problems in middle-income countries in the long term. The main reason poverty problems are essential to solve is that the poor should be cared for by the state. After all, every citizen has the right to work and a decent standard of living. This research method is quantitative, conducted using generalized least squares regression in 54 middle-income countries from 1999 to 2022, and supported by classical assumption diagnostic tests. The study's main findings prove that tertiary education can reduce the poverty gap. Increasing income per capita, expanding the coverage of social insurance program policies, and reducing the rural population can also reduce the poverty gap. The implications of these findings for policymakers should support tertiary education to reduce poverty in the long term.

Abstract

Poverty remains one of the most pressing development challenges in Central Java, where regional disparities and limited fiscal capacity continue to hinder the effectiveness of poverty alleviation programs. Despite substantial transfers from the central government, inefficiencies in fund allocation combined with low fiscal independence at the local level have slowed progress in reducing poverty. This study examines the impact of regional fiscal instruments and macroeconomic factors on poverty levels across 34 districts and cities in Central Java from 2017 to 2020. Using panel data and the Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) method, supported by diagnostic tests to ensure the model meets the BLUE (Best Linear Unbiased Estimator) criteria. The findings reveal that Regional Original Income (PAD), Other Legitimate Income, and Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) per capita play a role in reducing poverty, although the effects of PAD and Other Legitimate Income are only marginally significant. By contrast, Balancing Funds from the central government are positively and significantly associated with higher poverty rates, suggesting inefficiencies in their distribution and utilization. The Open Unemployment Rate is found to have no significant effect on poverty during the study period. Taken together, these results underscore the importance of strengthening local fiscal capacity, enhancing the efficiency of central government transfers, and promoting inclusive economic growth as integral components of long-term poverty reduction strategies in the region.

Abstract

Indonesia memiliki target mengurangi emisi gas rumah kaca untuk target tanpa syarat sebesar 29% menjadi 2049 MtCO2e dan untuk target dengan syarat sebesar 41% menjadi 1689 MtCO2e dari baseline 2811 MtCO2e di tahun 2030. Sektor energi terutama transportasi adalah salah satu target emisi gas rumah kaca Indonesia, yang meliputi tiga emisi gas rumah kaca nasional yaitu karbon dioksida (CO2), metana (CH4), dan nitrogen oksida (N2O). Jumlah CO2 meningkat secara linear dengan jumlah pembakaran bahan bakar mobil. Peneliti menganalisis estimasi biaya sosial CO2 per liter bahan bakar di Eropa untuk melakukan estimasi biaya sosial CO2 per liter bahan bakar di Indonesia. Pajak karbon membuat harga bahan minyak bensin meningkat 1,227 Rupiah dan disel meningkat 1,225 Rupiah, hal ini diperlukan untuk mencapai target pengurangan emisi gas rumah kaca untuk target tanpa syarat sebesar 29% menjadi 2049 MtCO2e dan untuk target dengan syarat sebesar 41% menjadi 1689 MtCO2e dari baseline 2811 MtCO2e di Indonesia tahun 2030. Pajak karbon bisa membantu pemerintah Indonesia untuk mencapai target penurunan gas rumah kaca di tahun 2030. Kata Kunci: Pajak Karbon, Gas Rumah Kaca, Karbon Dioksida, Harga Bahan Bakar, Emisi

Abstract

Lipstick effect and doom spending appear simultaneously as psychological responses to economic pressures in people's spending patterns. This community service program aims to mitigate both phenomena through Islamic financial management training for students at Al-Ghozali Islamic Boarding School in Yogyakarta. Using the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, activities include preparing Islamic financial materials, conducting interactive financial management training, and evaluating progress through pre-tests and post-tests. The program produces practical financial modules, activity reports, and scientific articles. The expected impacts include enhancing students' financial literacy, promoting healthy financial habits, and developing a sustainable financial education model grounded in Islamic values that can be replicated in other Islamic boarding schools.

Abstract

Although the macroeconomic determinants of growth are studied at length, there is still a lack of study on many aspects of the BRICS, which now includes the new members Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Indonesia, especially about the simultaneous consideration of unemployment along with FDI, trade openness, and inflation in a single panel model. The objective of this paper is to investigate the short- and long-run influence on GDP growth by accounting for heterogeneity within this community. Quantitative panel data analysis employing Panel ARDL with PMG estimator on secondary annual data (1991–2023) of 11 BRICS countries obtained from World Bank World Development Indicators. While FDI is positive and significant in the long run, unemployment is negative and significant (-0.217, p=0.008). Trade openness and Inflation are positive but not statistically significant. In the short run, unemployment is negative (-1.528, p=0.002); the error-correction term is -0.681 (p < 0.001), implying that 68% of the adjustment occurs annually. FDI and unemployment are identified as major long-run determinants, with rapid equilibrium adjustment. The innovation lies in the extended BRICS panel and the more recent disclosure of more potent effects of unemployment on structural turns. To this end, policies should be oriented toward promoting FDI and reducing unemployment to ensure sustained and inclusive growth, and institutional improvements would further enhance the gains from trade.

Abstract

Unemployment remains a significant issue in these middle-income countries, constraining poverty alleviation, labor productivity, and the supply of decent work amid skills mismatches and underemployment. This study examines the impact of higher education on unemployment rates in 54 middle-income countries over the period 1999–2022. This study applies the System Generalized Method of Moments (System-GMM) to dynamic panel data and controls for endogeneity and lagged effects. The controls include lagged unemployment, per capita GDP growth, CPI inflation, and government final consumption expenditure (in % of GDP). Findings indicate that a 1% increase in tertiary education leads to a 0.035% decrease in unemployment in the short run and a 0.130% decrease in the long run (both significant at the 1% level). Per capita GDP growth and inflation also reduce unemployment. At the same time, government consumption raises unemployment based on large-scale dynamic analysis in middle-income countries during the post-financial crisis era. The previous literature tends to focus on high-income and static environments. Tertiary education continues to play a key role in addressing unemployment and skills mismatches, according to this research. The authors recommend that greater effort should be directed toward investments in higher education in the context where skills are least aligned with labor market needs, as a big part of public expenditure to generate more employment opportunities.
