2025-06-26T21:42:42+00:00

Women and employment are a problem faced by both developed and developing countries. The view that women should work in the domestic sphere places women as weak and disadvantaged in society. This study aims to analyze and determine the role of the dimensions of economic and health in the female labor force participation during the 2017-2021 period in 34 provinces in Indonesia. Economic indicators are seen from female wages and female education. Meanwhile, health indicators are seen in female-headed households, fertility, and young women’s marriage. This study uses panel data analysis with the Fixed Effect Model (FEM). The study results show that the indicators in the economic dimension that have a significant relationship to the female labor force participation are female wages and female education. Then, an indicator in health that has a significant relationship is early-age marriage. Education emerges as a key finding in this study, thereby positioning the expansion of women's access to education as a central focus in efforts to enhance female labor force participation (FLFP).

Garbage accumulation in Pangkalpinang City continues to increase every year. This research analyzes the influence of input factors on output and analyzes the efficiency of waste processing in sub-districts in Pangkalpinang City. Then this research will also develop strategies that can be implemented to increase the efficiency of waste processing in sub-districts in Pangkalpinang City. The analysis technique used in this research uses quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis. Quantitative analysis uses stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), while qualitative analysis uses Triple Helix Analysis. The data used is monthly data from 2020 to 2022. This research found that the input factors that influence the efficiency value of waste processing in Pangkalpinang City are not yet appropriate. Then this research also shows that waste processing in Pangkalpinang City is technically efficient. However, there were findings of inefficiency in the model which had an effect of 906555.04 percent. This indicates that there are the most important input factors that should be in the model. Increasing waste processing in Pangkalpinang City is prioritized in the recycling program. The Triple Helix aspect needs to be considered as a priority because it has an impact on the sustainability of increasing waste processing in Pangkalpinang City, so it is necessary to develop a Triple Helix strategy.

Fiscal Decentralization on Economic Growth (A Systematic Literature Review)

2025-07-09T09:12:18+00:00

This study aims to explore the impact of fiscal decentralization on economic growth in Indonesia using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The SLR method is used to identify, assess, and analyze findings from relevant studies on the impact of fiscal decentralization on economic growth. The SLR process includes selecting relevant scientific articles, screening, and thematic analysis to identify common patterns and significant findings. The results of the study indicate that fiscal decentralization can have a positive impact on regional economic growth, especially if supported by quality regional financial management, adequate institutional capacity, and appropriate allocation of funds to productive sectors such as education, health, and infrastructure. The results of the study indicate that regions that have weaknesses in fund management and monitoring capacity have difficulty utilizing the potential of fiscal decentralization, so that its impact on the economy is not significant. Based on these findings, this study recommends that fiscal decentralization policies focus on strengthening institutional capacity and regional financial management to maximize the potential for economic growth.
