Abstract

The Human Development Index can be used as an indicator of successful development in a country or region. In 2023, Lampung Province's Human Development Index in 2023 amounted to 72.48 and was the lowest in Sumatra Island. This study aims to determine how much the speed of convergence of the Human Development Index between districts/cities in Lampung Province and also to determine how much influence the variables of Health Expenditure, Education Expenditure, and Poverty affect the Human Development Index in Lampung Province in the short and long term. The study used secondary data on Health Expenditure, Education Expenditure, Poverty, and Human Development Index in 13 districts/cities in Lampung Province from 2014 to 2022. The research method used is dynamic panel data regression using the Sys-GMM model. The results showed that the Human Development Index gap between districts/cities in Lampung Province decreased by 54.49% per year. The elasticity of the short-term effects of Health Expenditure, Education Expenditure, and Poverty on the Human Development Index is 9.27%, -1.52%, and -2.41%, respectively. In the long run, health expenditure, education expenditure, and poverty affect the Human Development Index by 20.38%, -3.35%, and -5.30%, respectively. Therefore, the government should continue programs in the health sector, evaluate spending in the education sector, and create poverty alleviation programs that have a significant impact.

Abstract

The Human Development Index can be used as an indicator of successful development in a country or region. In 2023, the lowest Human Development Index in North Sumatra Province was in the Nias Islands, namely West Nias Regency (63.70), South Nias Regency (64.13), Nias Regency (64.56), and North Nias Regency (64.64). Only Gunungsitoli City ranks in the lowest 10 out of 33 regencies/cities with an index of 70.68. This study aims to determine whether Poverty, Education Expenditure, and Village Funds have an impact on the Human Development Index in the Nias Islands. The results showed that partially Poverty has a negative and significant impact, Education Expenditure has a positive but insignificant impact, and Village Funds have a positive and significant impact on the Human Development Index in the Nias Islands. Poverty, education expenditure, and village funds simultaneously have a significant impact on the Human Development Index. Poverty, education expenditure, and village funds can explain the Human Development Index by 93.766%. The remaining 6.234% is accompanied by other variables that are not included in the object of this study. Therefore, the Government should create programs for poverty alleviation and optimize Education Expenditure and Village Funds to increase the Human Development Index in the Nias Islands.

Abstract

Poverty is a classic problem experienced by every country in the world, including Indonesia. In 2023, the highest percentage of poor people in North Sumatra Province was in the Nias Islands, namely West Nias Regency (22.81%), North Nias Regency (21.79%), South Nias Regency (16.39%), Nias Regency (15.10%), and Gunungsitoli City (14.78%). This figure is far greater than the percentage of poor people in North Sumatra Province at 8.15%.This study aims to determine the role of the Village Fund in alleviating Poverty in the Nias Islands. Researchers used panel data regression with the Village Fund as the main independent variable coupled with the Human Development Index and Economic Growth variables to be able to produce a more accurate regression equation model to explain Poverty in Nias Islands. The results showed that village funds had a negative and significant effect on poverty. In line with the research results and also regulatory support from the government related to allocating the village fund budget based on the poverty rate, the role of village funds in alleviating poverty in the Nias Islands is very important and needed. For this reason, the government should continue the village fund program to accelerate poverty reduction in villages, especially in the Nias Islands.

Abstract

The economic growth of North Sumatra Province in 2023 was 5.01%. This growth is still below the average Indonesian economic growth of 5.05%. This study aims to analyze the role of government spending and household spending in increasing economic growth in North Sumatra Province. Researchers used panel data regression with government expenditure and household expenditure as the main independent variables and supplemented with the human development index and the average Bank Indonesia interest rate to obtain a more accurate regression equation in explaining economic growth in North Sumatra Province. Government expenditure consists of two variables, namely local government capital expenditure and central government capital expenditure. Meanwhile, household expenditure consists of two variables, namely household expenditure on food and household expenditure on non-food. The data covers 33 districts/cities over the period 2017-2022. The results of the analysis show that local government capital expenditure, central government capital expenditure, and household expenditure on food consumption have a positive and significant effect on economic growth. While household expenditure on non-food has a negative and significant effect on economic growth. For this reason, the government should allocate additional capital expenditure budgets each year and create programs to maintain people's purchasing power.
