Poverty Alleviation, Human Capital, Technology and Economic Growth in Indonesia

English

Abstract

This study aims to determine the impact of human capital as reflected in education, technology,
economic growth on poverty in Indonesia using secondary data from world banks and using the
moving average autoregression method. We find that poverty is negatively related to GDP and
technology inclusion. However, it is positively related to the educational investment needs issued by
the Indonesian government. This means that the more the poor, the government needs more money
to subsidize education so that all citizens can get decent and equal educational opportunities. When
the poor continue to decrease, the cost of education can be financed independently by the population
so that the need for subsidies or education investment that is spent is less.
