Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of population and unemployment on poverty levels in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, using panel data from 2018 to 2022 across ten districts. The analysis employs a Random Effect Model (REM) after comparing Common Effect and Fixed Effect Models through Chow and Hausman tests. The findings reveal that population significantly increases poverty, while unemployment does not show a statistically significant effect. Overall, population and unemployment jointly influence poverty levels. The model explains 77% of the variation in poverty, highlighting the demographic challenge in regional poverty alleviation policies.
