Summary
Poverty is a fundamental problem in meeting basic needs in everyday life. The problem of poverty is not something that stands alone but is a result of not achieving economic development (Ishak et al, 2020). One of the goals of national development is to improve the performance of the economy so that it is able to create jobs and organize a decent life for all the people which will bring about the welfare of the Indonesian population. One of the national development goals is to reduce the poverty level. Poverty is one of the problems in the economy, so it must be resolved or at least reduced. Poverty alleviation efforts must be carried out comprehensively covering various aspects of community life, and carried out in an integrated manner (Lendetariang et al, 2019)
