Book Description
This report assesses trends in the level and the regional incidence of poverty as well as changes in income inequality. It examines the characteristics of the poor and outlines a general strategy for continuing poverty reduction in the 1990s. In addition, recent Government initiatives to reduce poverty are analyzed in the context of the proposed general strategic approach. Then, the report discusses in detail sectoral issues in designing and implementing antipoverty programs in three areas that are critical to the needs of the poor - agricultural programs, and human resource development in the social services and other basic services, such as water supply, sanitation and other basic infrastructure. Within these sectors, the report identifies those areas of most benefit to the poor and outlines appropriate policies and programs to shift a larger portion of resources to these areas. Finally, implementing the strategy outlined in this report will require changes in the Government's current institutional arrangements for identifying and implementing poverty programs. The report concludes with a discussion of institutional arrangements and responsibilities that could increase the efficiency of the Government's efforts. There is also a discussion of the role that community groups could play, in addition to Government institutions, in reaching and delivering services more effectively to the poor.

Book Description
Indonesia has an impressive record of economic growth and poverty reduction over the past 2 decades. The growth-poverty nexus appears strong at the aggregate level. Newly constructed panel data on the country's 285 districts, however, reveal huge differences in poverty changes, subnational economic growth, and local attributes. Results of econometric analysis show that besides growth, other factors directly influence the welfare of the poor, apart from their impact on growth itself. Among the critical ones are infrastructure, human capital, ag. price incentives, and access to technology. Thus, while fostering economic growth is evidently crucial, a more complete poverty reduction strategy should take into account these relevant factors.

Book Description
Understanding the nexus between employment, living standards and poverty is a major challenge in Indonesia. Trends in poverty are heavily dependent on labour market opportunities and social spending in education and health. The question is how to create opportunities and spend money wisely - a subject of intense debate in Indonesia. The government has brought a renewed focus to poverty reduction since the end of the Asian financial crisis, especially under the current president, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. This book shows how Indonesia is travelling with regard to employment, social policy and poverty. It identifies promising new directions for strategies to alleviate poverty, some of which are already showing results.

Book Description
This book provides an overview of recent advances in Integrated Community-Managed Development (ICMD) as an innovative strategy for the community-based development of local institutions in order to achieve lasting poverty reduction and empowerment. The original approach presented here to improving the lives and livelihoods of the poor takes a critical stance on the failing concept of conventional community development, as it is based on the shifting paradigm of 'bottom-up' cooperation and development, where recent regional autonomy policies are enabling national services to successfully integrate with local institutions at the community level. Based on recent experiences in South-East Asia, where the implementation of an alternative approach to integrating financial, medical, educational, communication and socio-cultural services has led to increased community participation and impressive poverty reduction, the book highlights the theoretical, methodological and practical aspects of this innovative strategy. The potential offered by applying the newly developed 'ICMD formula' worldwide as a function of themes, principles and services is reflected in the book’s diverse range of contributions, written by respected researchers and practitioners in the fields of development economics and financial management.
