Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of population and Human Development Index (IPM) on the open unemployment rate in NTB Province in 2018-2023. This study is a quantitative study with an associative approach. In the study, data collection was carried out directly through the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of NTB Province. Using three data, namely population data, Human Development Index data and open unemployment rate data for NTB Province in 2018-2023. The analysis method used in this study is panel data regression using Eviews 12.0 software. The results of this study indicate that population has a positive and insignificant effect on the open unemployment rate and the Human Development Index (IPM) has a negative and significant effect on the open unemployment rate and simultaneously the population and Human Development Index (IPM) have a significant effect on the open unemployment rate. The implications of these findings indicate that population growth needs to be managed properly so as not to increase the risk of unemployment. In addition, increasing the IPM has been shown to reduce the unemployment rate, so efforts to improve the quality of education, health, and living standards must continue to be encouraged by the local government.

Abstract

This research investigates the complex interplay of economic factors, health conditions, and access to education on social inequality and poverty in West Papua through a quantitative analysis. The study, conducted with a sample of 150 participants, employs correlation and regression analyses, supported by SPSS, to unveil significant relationships and dynamics within the socio-economic landscape of the region. Key findings reveal a strong negative correlation between income distribution and poverty rates, emphasizing the pivotal role of economic factors in poverty alleviation. Additionally, a positive correlation between disease prevalence and social inequality underscores the impact of health disparities on socio-economic outcomes. The study also highlights the transformative potential of education, with a robust positive correlation between school enrollment rates and economic well-being. These findings have direct implications for policy formulation, emphasizing the need for integrated approaches that address the synergies and trade-offs among economic, health, and education indicators. The study contributes substantively to the discourse on social inequality and poverty in West Papua, providing empirical evidence to guide evidence-based decision-making.
