<![CDATA[High economic growth and increased spending on social assistance and education spending still causes relatively high levels of poverty in the Districts/Cities of East Java Province in 2013-2022. Therefore, the aim of this research is to analyze and determine the influence of economic growth, social assistance spending, and education spending on poverty in the Districts/Cities of East Java Province. The type of data used is panel data from 38 districts/cities for ten years using the panel data regression analysis method. The research results show that social assistance spending has a negative and significant effect on poverty, education spending has a negative and significant effect on poverty, and economic growth has a positive and significant effect on poverty. This is because the capital-intensive sector is growing more rapidly than the labor-intensive sector. So, the government needs to make efforts to increase employment-based sectors and be able to absorb more workers, especially in capital-intensive sectors which make a greater contribution to economic growth in the districts/cities of East Java Province.]]>
