Abstract

The rapid advancement of information and communication technologies (ICT) is anticipated to effectively solve various economic issues including unemployment in developing countries. However, unemployment in Indonesia has fluctuation and is predominantly affecting the youth population. Additionally, researchers hold different views regarding the impact of ICT development on youth unemployment. Some researchers suggest a positive relationship between ICT and youth unemployment, while others argue that ICT can have detrimental effects on job opportunities and potentially increase youth unemployment. This study aims to describe ICT development and analyze the influence of ICT development on youth unemployment in Indonesia. This research used a dynamic panel methodology and utilizes two indicators of ICT development: mobile phone users and internet users across 33 provinces in Indonesia at 2010-2021. The results of this estimation indicate that mobile phone users and internet users do not significantly impact the youth unemployment model. The variables inflation, foreign and domestic investment and the lagged unemployment have a significant effect on youth enemployment

Abstract

Research originality: Women tend to be chosen as the non-labor force, even though they are potential workers who can contribute directly to the economy. Their level of education influences this contribution.   Research objectives: This research examined the impact of female labor force participation on regional economic and income convergence. Research methods: Pooled Least Squares (PLS) and panel data estimation were conducted using cross-sectional data on 472 cities/districts across Indonesia between 2016 and 2022. Empirical result: The findings reveal that female labor force participation significantly enhances regional economic growth only when women have at least a senior high school education. However, their contribution to accelerating economic convergence remains suboptimal, as most female workers are elementary school graduates. Implications: To improve the contribution of the female workforce to the economy, the government should extend compulsory education from 9 to 12 years, expand access to non-formal education for women, and establish a female-friendly labor market through job flexibility and improved childcare access.
