Abstract

Poverty is a complex and multidimensional problem occurring in various countries, one of which is Indonesia. This research aims to analyze the effect of GRDP, education, and the Gender Empowerment Index (GEI) on poverty in five regencies in Central Java from 2010 - 2021. The Central Bureau of Statistics provided secondary data for this descriptive quantitative research. The data analysis technique used multiple linear regression with panel data. The results showed that GRDP and education had a negative and significant effect on poverty. Gender Empowerment Index had no effect on poverty due to gender inequality. The implications of this research were the regional governments of Kebumen, Brebes, Pemalang, Banjarnegara, and Banyumas Regencies need to continue exploring and managing the potential of existing resources to encourage an increase in GRDP in the five regencies. In addition, the governments in those regions must make education more easily accessible, enhance their educational initiatives, and consistently assess how successfully they are reaching their intended audiences in order to reduce poverty.
