Poverty in South Sumatra Province Is Viewed From Village Fund and Village Fund Allocation

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of village funds and village fund allocations on poverty in South Sumatra Province. The sample used in this study was from 14 districts/cities in South Sumatra, selected based on the purposive sampling method. This study uses multiple regression data analysis. The results of this study indicate that the variable allocation of village funds has no effect on poverty. Meanwhile, village funds have a positive and significant effect on poverty. The research observation period was too short, and it is recommended to use more complete data with a longer study period. In addition, the variables used in further research are expected to be more complete and varied by adding other independent variables. It is hoped that the district/city government in South Sumatra Province can maximize the use of village fund allocations to achieve the goal of poverty alleviation in the district/city through the use of village spending.
