“…Income is a description of the level of a person's ability to fulfill his material needs in a certain time unit, usually per month. Income is used for two purposes, namely for consumption expenditure (purchase of goods and services) and for saving in financial institutions [6]. Community income can be in the form of salaries, wages, rent, and profits received from productive services.…”

This study aims to determine how big the impact of climate change is on the economic loss of the catch of Tuna fishermen in the northern waters of Aceh Province, Indonesia. Unfavorable climate change has an impact on decreasing fishing catches due to changes in seawater biophysics such as increasing sea surface temperatures, increasing wave height, and wind. The respondents in this study were 40 Tuna fishermen, located in 6 (six) villages in the waters of North Aceh., from two different WPPs, namely WPP 571 and 572. Data were collected by interview and using questionnaires. The results of this study indicate that there is a decrease in the level of welfare of coastal communities which is marked by a decrease in income levels caused by climate change. The results of the Present Value calculation also show that there is an economic loss for both small boats (<5GT) and large boats (>5GT), and the slope loss for small fishermen is steeper than for large fishermen. This indicates that large fishermen are more resilient to climate change than small fishermen. For an adaptation strategy, it is recommended that Tuna fishermen on the north coast of Aceh waters, both those in WPP 571 and 572, leave small boats and switch to larger boats (>5GT) which are proven to be more resistant to climate change than small boats (<5GT).

“…Fokus utama pembangunan manusia adalah memberikan kesempatan sumber daya manusia untuk tumbuh dan menikmati hidup yang produktif, sehat, dan berumur panjang (BPS, 2021). Beberapa kajian menggunakan variabel indeks pembangunan manusia sebagai tujuan dari proses pembangunan (Alatas & Cakir, 2016;Bucci et al, 2019;Ezkirianto & Alexandi, 2018;Pelinescu, 2015). Sementara itu, variabel pertumbuhan ekonomi digambarkan sebagai proksi yang tidak sempurna untuk menilai kesejahteraan, atau sebagai sarana dalam mengembangkan pembangunan manusia (Pelinescu, 2015).…”

The purpose of this study is to analyse the determinants of the human development index in Indonesia. The variables analyzed include economic growth, government spending on education and the inflation rate. The data period is 1990-2021, with the analysis method using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model. The results obtained show that economic growth and government spending have a positive and significant effect on HDI in both the long and short term, while inflation has a negative and significant effect on HDI. The theoretical implication is that there is a need for stable economic growth and increased spending on education to support an increase in people's welfare as reflected in the increase in the HDI value. In addition, the government needs to control the inflation rate more effectively.

“…At the macroeconomic level, this relationship can be explained by the impact of health on the three main drivers of growth: labor productivity, human capital accumulation and total factor productivity (TFP). GEH can improve health outcomes and lead to higher labor productivity (Bucci, Carbonari, & Trovato, 2019;Rivera & Currais, 1999;Sengupta, 2017;Wahab & Kefeli, 2017). A study by Culyer and Wagstaff (1993) found that a 10% increase in GEH was associated with a 0.5% increase in labor productivity.…”

This paper aims to investigate the effect of government expenditure on health and other relevant factors like health insurance, longevity, average age and death rate on economic growth in Western Balkan countries. Countries with higher levels of government expenditure on health tend to have higher levels of economic growth. Investment in healthcare may result in a greater supply of health incentives which may help human capital and enhance productivity and the economy’s performance. This paper uses annual data from 2000-2020 for the following Western Balkan countries: Albania, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, Northern Macedonia and Serbia. This region represents a diverse set of countries at different stages of development with varying government expenditures on health. This provides an opportunity to study the impact of health on economic growth in an environment with a lot of "real-world" variation. The data is collected from the World Bank, National Statistical Offices and Eurostat. The dependent variable is economic growth, measured as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita growth. The independent variables are government expenditure on health as a percentage of GDP, health insurance, longevity, the average age of the population, health expenditure per capita and the death rate. In order to measure the impact of individual factors, the study uses econometric models with fixed effects and random effects. The regression analysis results show that government expenditure on health has a positive and significant impact on economic growth in Western Balkans countries.
