Abstract

This study aims to determine how a country's abundant natural resource wealth can be utilised to bolster its economy and alleviate poverty. This study focuses on the use of natural resources to expedite development. This investigation makes use of a library-based qualitative research strategy. Data was gathered by conducting a Scopus search for natural resources-related journal articles using titles, keywords, and abstracts as metadata search references, and then analysing the results with the VOSviewer tool. We used VOSviewer to determine how many articles had been published on natural resources and discovered that a country's natural resources exceed its economic development. The purpose of utilising VOSviewer is to use it as a resource to conduct precise content analysis based on the researcher's name, publication year, researcher productivity, and natural resource research trends. This analysis was conducted for the purpose of examining the author's collaboration in the natural resources and poverty fields. The results indicate that natural resource-rich regions do not guarantee increased economic growth or reductions in poverty. Poverty in Indonesia is a complex issue, despite the fact that a number of developing nations have been successful in implementing improvements in national production and income and in reflecting the level of well-being among the country's population. The conclusion demonstrates that the resource curse in Indonesia is a result of poor resource management, which causes poverty. The influence of the resource curse on government social spending emphasises the significance of government accountability and transparency in relation to natural resource wealth.

Abstract

This research examines governance strategies to address gender inequality in the mining industry and enhance women’s empowerment. It identifies barriers preventing women from accessing opportunities and leadership roles through a systematic review of 37 articles published between 2014 and 2024. Data analysis using NVivo 12 Plus focused on themes such as women’s roles, challenges, and gender dynamics, while VOSviewer was employed for bibliometric analysis. The findings reveal systemic barriers, including limited training, unequal pay, and exclusion from decision-making. The study underscores the need for inclusive policies and gender-sensitive governance to drive meaningful change, aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly gender equality (SDG 5) and decent work and economic growth (SDG 8). It calls for comprehensive policies, comparative analyses of effective strategies across contexts, and integration of community perspectives into empowerment initiatives. Strengthening governance frameworks and fostering collaboration between stakeholders, policymakers, and local communities can enhance gender equality and inclusive growth in mining. Future research should further explore policy effectiveness, cross-national comparisons, and innovative governance models to address structural inequalities and promote sustainable economic participation for women.
