Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of economic convergence across Indonesian provinces during the period 2000–2022 by employing β-convergence, σ-convergence, and the Williamson Index. Provincial GDP per capita at constant 2010 prices is analyzed within a panel data framework. The results indicate significant β-convergence, implying that provinces with lower per capita income have grown faster than wealthier provinces. The σ-convergence analysis reveals a long-term decline in income dispersion across provinces, although temporary fluctuations occurred during the global financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. The Williamson Index also exhibits a downward trend, indicating a more equal distribution of income among provinces. These findings suggest that fiscal decentralization and infrastructure development have contributed to reducing regional inequality, although the convergence process has been relatively moderate

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of the tourism sector on Regional Original Revenue in North Lombok Regency and projects its growth trend until 2030. By using a quantitative descriptive approach, time series data from 2015 to 2024, analyzed with EViews 12. The results indicate that the number of tourist attractions, tourist arrivals, and tourism workforce have a positive and significant effect on Regional Original Revenue, while the number of restaurants and accommodation has a negative and significant effect. The estimated model demonstrates strong explanatory, with R² value 0.951039. Furthermore, the projection analysis shows a consistent upward trend, with Regional Original Revenue from tourism sector expected to reach Rp 465.44 billion by 2030. The findings highlight the importance of strengthening tourist attractions, increasing number of visitors, and enhancing the capacity of the tourism workforce in promoting sustainable economic growth. The study provides empirical evidence to support regional policymakers in optimizing tourism development strategies to enhance Regional Original Revenue and regional development planning.

Abstract

These findings confirm that the contribution of domestic assets to economic growth is relatively limited, which is in line with the literature that emphasizes the more dominant role of foreign direct investment, household consumption, and fiscal and monetary policies in influencing the Indonesian economy. Second, the causality test on foreign assets also shows similar results, namely that economic growth has not been proven to affect changes in foreign assets, and vice versa. Based on the findings of this study, the recommendation for the government is to implement economic development policies that are more focused on strengthening the domestic foundation, particularly by encouraging productive investment, increasing the competitiveness of the real sector, and strengthening household consumption, which has been proven to be more significant in driving economic growth

Abstract

This study examines the impact of the Gerakan Sumsel Mandiri Pangan (GSMP) program on regional economic growth in Southern Sumatra using a Difference-in-Differences (DiD) approach. GSMP is a flagship provincial program aimed at strengthening household food self-sufficiency and reducing dependence on social assistance. The analysis compares economic growth trends between South Sumatra Province as the treatment group and Lampung Province as the control group over the period 2019–2024. The DiD results indicate that, following the implementation of GSMP, the average growth of Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) in the treatment province increased by approximately 0.024 percentage points relative to the control province. Further regression results show that food security, proxied by the Food Security Index, has a positive and statistically significant effect on GRDP, while population density exerts a negative influence. These findings imply that while GSMP contributes to improved food self-sufficiency and exhibits a positive association with economic growth, its aggregate impact on regional GRDP has not yet been sufficiently strong to generate statistically significant macroeconomic effects

Abstract

This study investigates the women’s contribution in driving economic growth in BRICS countries using a dynamic panel approach. It examines fertility, women’s education, and female labor participation, along with key macroeconomic controls, based on panel data from 14 countries over 2008–2022. The Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) is employed to address endogeneity and capture dynamic effects. The findings indicate that fertility, female labor force participation, and women’s education significantly promote economic growth, underscoring the importance of demographic factors, employment, and human capital. The negative interaction between fertility and female labor participation reflects a trade-off between reproductive and productive roles. Additionally, growth remains positively associated with carbon emissions, indicating reliance on carbon-intensive development. These results highlight the need for gender-inclusive and sustainable growth strategies

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) score and the proportion of independent commissioners on firm value among companies listed in the ESG Leaders Index on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Firm value is proxied by the Cyclically Adjusted Price Earnings Ratio (CAPE Ratio), while ESG score is measured based on Morningstar Sustainalytics ratings and independent commissioners are measured by the proportion of independent commissioners to the total board of commissioners. This study employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from financial statements, sustainability reports, stock price data, index information, and other relevant sources. The sample was selected using purposive sampling and consisted of 23 companies that met the research criteria. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with Microsoft Excel and JASP. The results show that ESG score has a positive but statistically insignificant relationship with the CAPE Ratio. Meanwhile, independent commissioners have a negative but statistically insignificant relationship with the CAPE Ratio. These findings indicate that ESG score and independent commissioners are not yet strong determinants of firm value in the observed sample. Future research is suggested to include control, mediating, or moderating variables to provide a more comprehensive explanation of firm value

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between Indonesia’s National Health Insurance program (Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional/JKN) and infant mortality. Using data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (Survei Kesehatan Indonesia/SKI), the analysis applies Propensity Score Matching (PSM) to address potential selection bias. After controlling for a range of health-related, demographic, and socioeconomic variables, the results show that participation in the National Health Insurance program is positively and significantly associated with higher perinatal survival, indicating lower infant mortality. However, the heterogeneity analysis highlights important distributional differences. A positive, statistically significant association is observed only among households in the low and middle-income groups, suggesting that the benefits of JKN are not evenly distributed across income levels. Moreover, when examined by geographic region, the significant association between JKN utilization and improved perinatal survival is found only in Java and Sumatra. This study provides updated national evidence on the association between JKN utilization and infant mortality using the latest survey data.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between human capital, income inequality, and poverty within the framework of achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 1 and 10. The method used is bibliometrics by following the PRISMA guidelines. The results of the study show that human capital plays an important role in reducing poverty, especially through improving education, skills, and health. However, its effectiveness is greatly influenced by the distribution of opportunities and the level of income inequality. When access to human capital is unequal, its benefits tend to widen social disparities, so that poverty alleviation efforts be less than optimal. These findings underscore the importance of integrating human development policies with economic redistribution strategies to ensure that social investments are truly inclusive and equitable. The originality of this research lies in its comprehensive mapping of the latest literature linking the three main dimensions of human capital, income inequality, and poverty within the SDGs framework. The practical implication is that governments and policymakers need to ensure that investments in human capital are accompanied by equitable access, so that they can be an effective instrument for sustainable poverty reduction

Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of dependence on the mining sector and regional public spending on the process of economic structural transformation at the district/city level using panel data from 13 districts/cities in Central Sulawesi Province during the period 2013–2023. The analysis was conducted using a two-way Fixed Effects model with cluster-robust standard errors to control for differences in regional characteristics and intertemporal changes. The results show that dependence on the mining sector has a negative and significant effect on non-mining economic performance per capita (β = −3.36; p < 0.01). This finding indicates the existence of structural pressures arising from the dominance of the extractive sector at the regional level. Population size, as a proxy for economic agglomeration, has a positive and significant effect (β = 1.91; p < 0.01), reflecting the role of economies of scale in strengthening non-mining activities. The public expenditure variable shows an economically relevant coefficient direction. The interaction model shows that capital expenditure has the potential to mitigate the negative impact of mining dependence, but the effect is marginal (p < 0.10). The results of this study confirm that regions that depend on the mining sector tend to face obstacles in strengthening their non-mining economic base. A reorientation of public expenditure that is more productive and focused on developing the non-extractive sector is needed to support the regional structural transformation process

Abstract

This paper explores the causality between per capita expenditure (PCE), unemployment (Umt), and labour supply (LS) on poverty (Pvt) through health quality (HQ) in the IKN region during 2016–2024. The rationale for this research is that the IKN project has the potential to rapidly transform the labour market and economic structure, meaning that the impact of economic growth on poverty is influenced not only by the scale of economic activity itself but also by the population’s health capacity to respond to economic pressures and opportunities. Furthermore, health quality plays a crucial role in enhancing or diminishing the effectiveness of expenditure and employment opportunities in reducing poverty; therefore, neglecting this element risks producing IKN development policies that are neither inclusive nor sustainable. The Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method was employed to analyse secondary panel data, which was adapted into a multiple regression and moderation model, yielding three key findings. First, PCE and Umt have a significant effect on HQ. Second, Umt, LS, and HQ significantly influence Pvt. Third, PCE and Umt, moderated by HQ, are shown to have a significant effect on Pvt. Among the variables examined, only Umt consistently plays a significant role in extending HQ or reducing Pvt.
