Abstract

Social poverty is a classic problem and continues to be a crucial issue that the government must immediately resolve, because it involves the welfare of the lower class. A development strategy that is oriented towards economic growth and productivity has resulted in social inequality and injustice, therefore a development strategy by prioritizing community empowerment, especially rural communities, is expected to increase family income and welfare. The one village one product (OVOP) approach can be an alternative strategy for community economic empowerment because the target of development is the superior product of the village where most of the villagers are engaged in these business activities. Superior village products have specificities and are the development of the local cultural potential of each village, so that they have greater opportunities and access to compete competitively at the local, regional, national, and even international levels. The OVOP approach through fostering more modern business management can encourage a wider network so as to increase business productivity and community welfare.

Summary

Introduction

Social poverty is still a crucial issue that must be faced by the government because it involves the welfare and prosperity of the lower class. The growth paradigm, which is oriented towards economic growth through increased productivity, can only be enjoyed by a certain small group of elites, while the lower class of society does not benefit from the expected trickle-down effect. With this failure, encouraging the development paradigm by emphasizing equitable development and its results through the direction of sectoral development policies and community empowerment (people empowering), especially in rural areas, considering that the problem of poverty is mostly in rural areas. The condition of the people who are called poor can be identified based on their income ability to meet the standard of living.
