Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of integrated environmental policies through a green and circular economy approach in encouraging MSME empowerment and poverty alleviation. The research approach used is mixed methods, namely a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. Quantitative data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM), while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews and field observations. The results of the quantitative study indicate that integrated environmental policies have a significant effect on the green and circular economy, with a T-statistic of 4.663 and P-values ​​of 0.000. The green and circular economy also has a significant effect on MSME empowerment and poverty alleviation with a T-statistic of 4.762 and P-values ​​of 0.000. In addition, integrated environmental policies also have a direct effect on MSME empowerment and poverty alleviation, and are proven to have an indirect effect through the mediating variable of the green and circular economy. The research model shows an R-square value of 0.677 for the green and circular economy variable and 0.848 for the MSME empowerment and poverty alleviation variable, which indicates a strong explanatory power of the model. Qualitative results indicate that the implementation of a green and circular economy in MSMEs is still in the transition phase, with positive impacts in the form of business efficiency, increased revenue, and expanded market access. However, obstacles remain, including limited capital, low environmental literacy, and limited access to technology. Nevertheless, significant opportunities exist through government policy support, green financing, and MSME digitalization.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of supply chain strategy on sustainable supply chain performance in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), considering the role of operational efficiency and integration as intervening variables. The approach used is quantitative with the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method using SmartPLS software. Data were obtained through distributing questionnaires to MSMEs in developing countries. The results of the study indicate that supply chain strategy does not have a significant direct effect on sustainable supply chain performance. However, supply chain strategy has a positive and significant effect on operational efficiency and integration, and operational efficiency and integration have a positive and significant effect on sustainable supply chain performance. In addition, the results of the mediation test indicate that operational efficiency and integration fully mediate the relationship between supply chain strategy and sustainable supply chain performance. The R-square value is in the moderate to strong category and the high Goodness of Fit value indicates that the research model has good predictive ability. These findings confirm that improving sustainable supply chain performance in MSMEs depends not only on strategy selection but also on the effectiveness of strategy implementation through increased operational efficiency and integration. This research provides theoretical contributions in the development of multi-objective optimization models as well as practical implications for MSMEs and policy makers in designing more efficient, integrated, and sustainable supply chain strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Psychological Capital on Entrepreneurial Mindset and its impact on Innovation Orientation and Business Resilience in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). This study uses a quantitative approach with the Partial Least Squares-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) method using SmartPLS software. The results show that Psychological Capital has a positive and significant influence on Entrepreneurial Mindset as well as Innovation Orientation and Business Resilience. However, Entrepreneurial Mindset does not have a significant direct effect on Innovation Orientation and Business Resilience. Nevertheless, Entrepreneurial Mindset is proven to have a role as a mediating variable in the relationship between Psychological Capital and Innovation Orientation and Business Resilience. This finding confirms that increasing innovation and business resilience in MSMEs is not only directly influenced by psychological capital, but also through the formation of a strong entrepreneurial mindset. Therefore, strengthening the psychological aspects of MSMEs is an important factor in increasing business competitiveness and sustainability.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of green food marketing in the Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) as an instrument for improving community nutrition while empowering the local economy. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature review of various studies related to MBG, green marketing, MSMEs, and the latest local food innovations (2020–2025). The results show that the integration of green food marketing principles, product and packaging innovation, and digital transformation can increase the added value, image, and branding of the local economy. MBG not only ensures nutritional fulfillment for schoolchildren, toddlers, and pregnant women but also strengthens MSMEs, farmers, and local businesses through a sustainable supply chain. The developed integrative conceptual model combines nutritional fulfillment, economic empowerment, green marketing, and digitalization, thus creating synergy between public health, local economic growth, and environmental sustainability. These findings serve as the basis for recommendations for the government and stakeholders in optimizing MBG as a holistic and sustainable local development strategy.

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) is a strategic government policy aimed at improving the nutritional quality of elementary school children while strengthening human resource development from an early age. This study aims to analyze the nutritional status and consumption patterns of elementary school students, examine the influence of MBG on students' psychological development, particularly their concentration on learning, motivation, and school attendance, and evaluate the program's role in shaping healthy eating behaviors and sustainable lifestyle habits from a green human resource perspective. The research approach uses a descriptive qualitative method with literature and policy analysis, supported by empirical findings from previous studies and reports from international institutions. The results show that the Free Nutritious Meal Program contributes positively to improving students' nutritional status and shifting consumption patterns towards healthier ones. In addition, MBG has been shown to support increased concentration on learning, motivation, and school attendance. However, the integration of green human resource values ​​in the implementation of MBG is still not optimal and tends to be partial. Therefore, a holistic and sustainable MBG policy integration model is needed that involves schools, families, and communities. This study concludes that MBG functions not only as a nutritional fulfillment program but also as a strategic instrument for developing green human resources that are healthy, have character, and are sustainable from an early age.

Abstract

Nutritional inequality and poverty remain structural problems that impact the quality of human resources and sustainable development in Indonesia. The Free Nutritional Meal Program (PMBG) is a strategic government policy aimed not only at improving the nutritional status of the community, particularly children and vulnerable groups, but also at supporting the development of high-quality and competitive human resources. This study aims to analyze the role of PMBG in improving community nutritional status, encouraging human resource development, and realizing synergies between nutrition policies, poverty alleviation, and inclusive green economic development. The research method used is a qualitative approach through literature review of various scientific studies, policy reports, and international publications. The results show that PMBG has great potential to improve the quality of community health and cognition, increase future workforce productivity, and create an economic multiplier effect through the involvement of MSMEs and the sustainable local agricultural sector. However, the implementation of this program also faces challenges, such as budget constraints, cross-sector coordination, and the sustainability of an environmentally friendly food supply chain. Therefore, optimizing PMBG as an inclusive green development strategy requires strengthening governance, integrating cross-sector policies, and active participation of local communities and businesses to provide long-term impacts on human development and the green economy in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to examine Indonesia's national strategy in addressing increasingly complex global and domestic challenges, particularly in the areas of the global economic slowdown, commodity price volatility, supply chain disruptions, and climate change. This study uses a qualitative approach with a library research method through analysis of various national policy documents, international agency reports, and the latest scientific publications. The study results indicate that Indonesia's national strategy has been directed at strengthening economic resilience through macroeconomic stability, economic transformation, industrial downstreaming, and strengthening the domestic market. In facing geopolitical challenges and supply chain disruptions, the national strategy encourages diversification of trading partners, strengthening national industry, and improving logistics infrastructure. Meanwhile, in responding to climate change, the national strategy is directed at mitigation and adaptation through energy transition, emission reduction, and strengthening disaster risk management. However, the effectiveness of the national strategy still faces implementation obstacles, such as regional capacity imbalances, limited human resources, weak cross-sectoral coordination, regional fiscal dependency, and suboptimal monitoring and evaluation. This study concludes that Indonesia's national strategy is on the right track, but requires strengthening policy integration, consistency of implementation, and increasing the capacity of central and regional institutions to be more adaptive and effective in facing global pressures and domestic needs in a sustainable manner.
