Abstract

Poverty remains a major issue in national development, including in Bengkulu City. This community service activity aims to improve beneficiary families' understanding of the Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH), provide accurate information through the Social Services Agency, and encourage community participation in supporting poverty alleviation efforts. The method used in this community service activity is an interactive method combined with direct outreach by the Social Services Agency. This approach has proven effective because it increases participants' trust in the information provided. Based on the questionnaire results, there was an increase in understanding, especially regarding beneficiary obligations and the program's long-term goals. Participants also assessed the delivery method as clear, easy to understand, and relevant to daily life. Therefore, this activity is a strategic effort to increase the effectiveness of PKH implementation at the local level.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of early marriage rates on poverty levels in Indonesia. Using secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), panel data regression is applied to thirty-four provinces with relatively high poverty and early marriage rates over the 2015–2023 period. The model employs a fixed effect specification and includes economic growth, education level, and unemployment rate as additional explanatory variables. The results show that, simultaneously, economic growth, education level, unemployment rate, and early marriage rate have a significant effect on poverty levels. Partially, economic growth has a positive and significant effect on poverty, indicating that higher economic growth has not yet been accompanied by a reduction in poverty, so that growth is not yet inclusive. Education level has a negative and significant effect on poverty, underscoring the strategic role of education in reducing poverty through improving the quality of human resources. The unemployment rate has a positive and significant effect, meaning that higher unemployment increases the likelihood of poverty. The early marriage rate also has a positive and significant effect, indicating a tendency for early marriage to raise the risk of poverty. The coefficient of determination of 0.98 shows that the variables in the model explain 98 percent of the variation in poverty levels, indicating excellent explanatory power. Overall, the findings confirm that education and unemployment exert a stronger influence on poverty than early marriage, while economic growth has not yet had an inclusive impact on poverty reduction.

Abstract

This study aims to describe and analyze the influence of socioeconomic factors on the incidence of early marriage among women in Central Bengkulu Regency. The study used a quantitative descriptive approach with primary data collected through structured questionnaires and interviews with 160 married or married women. The sample was selected purposively from villages in Pematang Tiga, Bang Haji, Pondok Kubang, and Semidang Lagan Districts. The dependent variable was early marriage status based on age at marriage, namely marriage before 18 years and marriage at 18 years and above. Independent variables included mother's age at first marriage, respondent's education level, mother's education level, father's education level, father's occupation type, and household income. The analysis was conducted using logistic regression to estimate the probability of early marriage. The results showed that socioeconomic factors influenced early marriage, with significant variables including respondent's education level, father's education level, and household income. Respondent's education level was the most dominant factor in explaining the probability of early marriage, which confirms that limited access to and attainment of education for women in rural areas remains a major determinant. These findings indicate the importance of strengthening policies and programs focused on increasing access to education, enhancing reproductive health literacy, and providing economic support for vulnerable households to reduce the practice of early marriage.
