“…Fadlli et al (2019) found that human development issues have not been sufficiently captured in the national budget for capital expenditures so that there is an adverse effect of capital expenditures on the human development index. This indicates that by improving the quality of basic services such as health and education to the community, human development is also increasing (Adam & Negara, 2015;Sari, 2019). There are also those who argue that the increase in human development can encourage the economic progress of a region.…”

This study investigates the effect of economic growth, education expenditures, and health expenditures on human development index (HDI) in Jambi Province. This study used panel data of 11 district/cities from 2012 to 2019. The analytical approach was quantitative by applying panel data regression models. The findings of the study indicated that the economic growth, education expenditure, and health expenditure had a significant and positive influence on the human development index. The implication of the model in this study shows that the efforts made by the Jambi provincial government are effective and optimal in allocating education and health spending to encourage increased human capital as measured by a high human development index. This is input in structural reforms in the education and health sectors to ensure that skilled human resources are developed in areas critical to economic development.

“…Our findings are consistent with the production structure and socioeconomic features of Ecuadorian provinces and evidence the effects that certain public policies might have had in the field of education. Nevertheless, the country's efforts in terms of implementing policies aimed at reducing poverty (National Plans for Good Living and the BDH), on the one hand, and those which seek to improve human capital and its capabilities (Ten-Year Education Plan 2006-2015, and the latest educational reforms), on the other, might not have proved sufficient to bring Ecuador out of the middle-income trap [70] in which it has been immersed for over 60 years [130]. In other words, Ecuador is caught in a low productivity growth, which keeps the country trapped between low income and high income due to structural problems that are hard to overcome.…”

“…One of its main tools was the payment of a cash transfer conditional upon universal access to social services in health and education [67,68]. These programs, which were key symbols in poverty reduction [69], consider education as a vital factor in human development [70]. The BDH is part of the poverty eradication policy foreseen in the National Plans for Good Living, acting in close collaboration with the Ten-Year Education Plans.…”

Education as a dimension of human development: A Provincial-level Education Index for Ecuador

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This article deepens in the differences in educational development between the Ecuadorian provinces and in their evolution over time by estimating the Provincial-level Education Index. This index is built using the micro-databases of the two latest rounds of the Ecuador`s Living Standards Measurement Survey (2005–2006 and 2013–2014). The results show an overall increase in the educational development of the Ecuadorian provinces, as well as a slight reduction in inequality. However, differences between them continue to exist. Underlying our results, which are consistent with the provincial production structure and socioeconomic context, some public policies seem to affect the educational sector, as their impact has been evidenced during the period covered in this research.
