The Influence Of Inflation, Per Capita Income And Economic Growth Against Jambi Province Poverty

Abstract

Inflation, per capita income and economic growth are things that can influence poverty. To overcome the problem of poverty, strategies must be chosen that can strengthen the role and position of the people's economy in the national economy, so that structural changes occur which include allocating resources, strengthening institutions, empowering human resources. The chosen program must support and empower the community through economic development and improving the people's economy. 

This program must be realized in strategic steps that are directed directly at expanding poor people's access to development resources and creating opportunities for the lowest levels of society to participate in the development process, so that they are able to overcome their conditions of backwardness. This poverty problem is not a new problem, which affects almost every province in Indonesia, one of which includes Jambi Province. The problem in Jambi Province is that the poverty rate is still high.

This means that if tested together, economic growth, inflation and per capita income have a significant effect on poverty. Based on the results of the influence validity test (t test) which was carried out to determine the significance and influence of the independent variables.
