Abstract

The condition of gender equality in education in Indonesia is an issue that continues to make progress, although it is not yet aligned with the global gender equality situation. Based on the Global Gender Gap Index (GGGI) in 2021, Indonesia still ranks 101 out of 156 countries with a score of 0.688 or 68.8 percent gender equality. Indonesia's ranking in the GGGI sub-index, particularly in educational attainment, is relatively lower. This research examines the condition of gender inequality in education and its impact on poverty in Indonesia at the district/city level. By using panel data from 2012 to 2021, the analysis reveals variations in gender disparities in education across different districts/cities. The research findings show a significant negative relationship between gender inequality in education, measured by the ratio of average years of schooling for females compared to males, and the poverty indicator, indicating that an increase in gender equality in education can contribute to poverty alleviation efforts. The research emphasizes the importance of a contextual approach to address specific challenges and opportunities in different regions. Policy recommendations include promoting gender equality in education, eliminating gender stereotypes, and considering factors such as economic growth, population size, internet access, and social assistance programs in poverty alleviation efforts. This research is expected to contribute to policy-making efforts to achieve gender equality and poverty reduction in Indonesia

Abstract

Food security is essential to ensure the availability, access, and consumption of sufficient, nutritious, and safe food for all people. The Home Garden Areas or Kawasan Rumah Pangan Lestari (KRPL) in the local language is one of the government's food security programs. The number of KRPLs has steadily increased between 2017 and 2021. However, the level of food insecurity has risen since 2020. Variations in the number of KRPLs from 2017 to 2021 were accounted for in this study to estimate their impact on food insecurity. This study recommends that KRPL be accompanied by other policies, particularly poverty reduction programs in food insecurity interventions, at least in regencies/municipalities with "high" and "very high" food insecurity categories. The magnitude and significance of the relationship between KRPLs and food insecurity were estimated using this study's panel data analysis techniques with the Fixed Effect method. According to the simulation results, an additional 157 KRPL areas are required in each regency and municipality to bring the SaMaPua regions into the "moderate" food insecurity category. The total number of KRPL needed for the SaMaPua region becomes 14.915 areas. The average food insecurity in Java-Bali from 2017 to 2021 is nearly half that of non-Javanese and Bali food insecurity. The maximum value of food insecurity in non-Java and Bali areas is 83,6 percent, indicating that there are still areas with "very high" food insecurity outside Java-Bali. According to the estimation results, KRPLs significantly reduce food insecurity after one year, particularly in the Java and Bali regions.
