Abstract

There is a trend of decreasing the poverty rate in Indonesia. But in the Province of West Kalimantan, there are still five districts with poverty rates that are above the average national rate, namely Melawi, Landak, Ketapang, Sintang, and North Kayong districts. The purpose of this study is to estimate the relationship between government transfers which are proxied by the amount of GAT (General Allocation Transfer) Funds, economic growth, and the quality of human resources in terms of education and health which are proxied by the average years of schooling and public-health insurance membership. Once these factors can be identified, it is hoped that the government will find it easier to reduce poverty levels. Based on Nested Test, model that passes the goodness of fit test is The Common Effect model so this model is used in estimating and interpreting in this research. It shows that there is no difference in the behavior of the research variables, either between time or between individuals. The findings of this study that the economic growth variable is not significant in reducing the poverty level, the variable of literacy level have a significantly negative effect on the poverty level, the variable of public-health insurance membership has significantly positive on the poverty level, and the central government transfer variable proxied by GAT has significantly positive effect significant to the poverty level.

Abstract

The circular economy represents a groundbreaking economic model that transforming waste into valuable products, potentially benefiting regional and national economies. This research explores the correlation between household waste management and its impact on environmental degradation and public health. Employing the System Dynamics method, the study delves into the intricacies of real-world system behavior, examining causal links and interrelationships within a system of interconnected sub-systems. Utilizing mental data, including scientific publications, mass media news, and expert opinions, alongside quantitative time series, the research focuses on the limitations of household waste management in addressing air and water pollution, posing potential health risks. Findings indicate a connection between population growth and increased waste generation, predominantly from residential sources. Unmanaged waste creation threatens air and water quality, emphasizing the importance of waste management in minimizing pollutants for improved public health. Aligning with the circular economy's 3R concept, effective waste management not only mitigates environmental impact but also holds the potential to enhance income generation. The circular economy's recycling and green entrepreneurship promotion can stimulate investments, fostering job creation. Collaborative efforts between governments and business owners can further support distribution and marketing channels, encouraging local self-sufficiency
