Scale Up Kapabilitas Keuangan Badan Usaha Milik Desa Dengan Aplikasi Sistem Informasi Desa Mandiri (SIDesRi)

Kabupaten Semarang memiliki kontur wilayah yang beragam serta potensi yang variatif, tidak terkecuali sektor pariwisatanya. Salah satu desa yang memiliki potensi wisata serta telah memiliki BUM Desa adalah Kopeng. Adanya potensi wisata di Kopeng dikemas dalam wujud desa wisata, kondisi ini mendorong pertumbuhan UMKM di sekitar. Namun, UMKM di desa ini belum menunjukkan adanya ekspansi bisnis secara masif dengan ciri khas variatif maupun inovatif. Hal ini salah satunya dilatarbelakangi oleh pencatatan laporan keuangan yang masih sangat sederhana dan kurang sistematis, serta kurangnya pengetahuan UMKM mengenai pemisahan kekayaan pribadi dan aset bisnis. Kondisi tersebut membuat para pelaku UMKM kesulitan untuk mencetuskan strategi pemasaran maupun ekspansi bisnis yang lebih luas, terutama terkait dengan alokasi anggaran. Hal inilah yang mendorong pengabdian bertema “Scale Up Kapabilitas Keuangan Badan Usaha Milik Desa dengan Aplikasi Sistem Informasi Desa Mandiri (SIDesRi)”. Metode pengabdian dilaksanakan mulai dari persiapan, sosialisasi dan pelatihan, serta pemantauan lapangan. Adanya pengabdian yang berisi kegiatan peningkatan literasi keuangan dan pengenalan aplikasi pencatatan keuangan digital ini diharapkan mampu mendorong kapabilitas keuangan UMKM dan BUM Desa pada khususnya serta dihasilkan laporan keuangan yang lebih sistematis dan praktis, sehingga pertumbuhan bisnis UMKM yang lebih maju dan inovatif dapat terwujud

Poverty is a serious problem, it’s happened in all the world, such as Indonesia. In September 2006, BPS announced that the poverty rate in Indonesiahad increased during the period February 2005 to march 2006 from 16.0 percent to 17.75 percent contrast to steady declines in the poverty rate since the crisis. Number of Poverty in Indonesiain 2006 have been reached 35,5 milion people. Government of Indonesiahas implemented programs to reduce poverty until village level. These programs such as IDT, PPK, BLT, etc. But, that programs just a short run programs, not long run programs. As long run program, P2KP has many programs, such as micro credits, infrastructure, and training. In Pepedan and Linggapura village implemented infrastructure programs. Its first priority programs because there many roads in that village are broken and disturbs local economic activities. BKM and KSM managed this program so that is success. Based on SWOT analysis, appropriate strategy to improve the function of P2KP is by intregrated horizontal strategy. It means, Local Government (Brebes Regency Goverment) must have policy strategic and must cooperation with BKM, KSM and people in village. Project evaluate (Inputs, Outputs, Outcames, Benefits, Impact) needs to know programs running.</p

FAKTOR - FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI PDRB KABUPATEN / KOTA JAWA TENGAH TAHUN 2008-2012

<p>Pertumbuhan ekonomi yang tinggi merupakan kondisi utama bagi kelangsungan pembangunan ekonomi daerah. Untuk mengukur kemajuan perekonomian daerah dengan mengamati seberapa besar laju pertumbuhan ekonomi yang dicapai daerah tersebut yang tercermin dari kenaikan Produk Domestik Regional Bruto (PDRB). PDRBKabupaten/Kota di Jawa Tengah selama tahun 2008- 2012 mengalami pertumbuhan karena banyak yang mempengaruhinya, seperti: Tabungan, Kredit, PAD dan Belanja Daerah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis seberapa besar faktor-faktor tersebut mempengaruhi tingkat PDRB kabupaten/Kota di Jawa Tengah selama tahun 2008-2012. Variabel dependen yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah PDRB, sedangkan variabel-variabel independen yaitu Tabungan, Kredit, Pendapatan Asli Daerah (PAD) dan Belanja Daerah. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis regresi linear berganda melalui metode OLS dengan menggunakan data    time series 2008  –2012 dan data crosssection 35 kabupaten/kota di Provinsi Jawa Tengah atau yang dimaksud dengan data panel. Pengujian model dalam penelitian ini menggunakan metode FixedEffect. Hasil estimasi menunjukkan bahwa hasil analisis regresi pada α=5%menunjukkan bahwa secara parsial  variabel tabungan   dan kredit berpengaruh signifikan, sedangkan variabel PAD, dan Belanja Daerah tidak signifikan terhadap PDRB kabupaten/kota di Provinsi Jawa Tengah tahun 2008–2012. </p><p>High economic growth is the main condition for the continuation of regional economic development. To measure the progress of the regional economy, observation on the economyc growth rate in each area can be conducted. It is reflected in the increase of Gross Regional Domestic Product (GDP). The increase of GDP of regency/city in Central Java during the year of 2008- 2012 was influenced by several factors such as savings, credit, local generated revenue (PAD), and Expenditure. This study intends to analyze the affect of these factors to the level of GDP on districts / cities in Central Java during the years 2008-2012. The dependent variable used in this study is GDP. Meanwhile, the independent variables are savings, credit, revenue (PAD) and expenditure. This study uses multiple linear regression analysis by the OLS method using time series data in 2008 -2012 and data crosssection of 35 districts / cities in Central Java province which are often called as the data panel. The model is tested by using Fixed Effect. The result indicates that the results of the regression analysis on the α = 5% shows that in partial,  saving and loan have significant effect on GDP.  Meanwhile,  PAD variable and expenditurehave no significant effect on GDP districts / cities in Central Java province in 2008-2012.</p

Interconnected Forces: Analyzing Urbanization, Economic Growth, Energy Consumption, and Forest Area in the Top 10 Populous Nations’ CO2 Emissions

Economic progress is often seen as a means to enhance living standards, yet it often comes with an unintended consequence: a decline in environmental well-being. This research seeks to validate the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) theory within the top 10 most populous nations and scrutinize the impact of urbanization, economic advancement, energy usage, and forest coverage on CO2 emissions. Utilizing data sourced from the World Development Indicator spanning from 2000 to 2019, this study employed a robust analytical approach known as the generalized method of moments (GMM) dynamic panel data, validated through Sargan and Arellano-Bond tests. The findings affirmed that economic growth, energy consumption, and forest area exerted significant influence on carbon dioxide emissions, aligning with the EKC hypothesis. However, contrary to expectation, urbanization didn't display a discernible impact on emissions, likely due to well-integrated transportation systems and higher educational standards prevalent in urban settings. This underscores the necessity for a sustainable economic growth strategy, advocating for industries with minimal pollution and eco-friendly products conducive to easy recycling. Furthermore, initiatives aimed at expanding forested areas should consider innovative techniques like vertical garden-based reforestation

The Effects of Regulatory Performance on the Debt–Growth Relationship: Cases of Upper-Middle-Income Economies

Upper-middle-income economies (UMIE) are experiencing an economic slowdown, partly due to weak regulatory performance. This issue leads to slow growth in private sector participation, thus limiting the ability to achieve higher economic growth. At this critical point, the government’s role is to inject funds into economies, hoping that growth can be increased and sustained for an extended period. Nevertheless, injecting more funds through borrowings from external debt exposes economies to vulnerable conditions. Thus, this study aimed to examine how regulatory performance affects economic growth and moderates the debt–growth relationship in UMIE. By using the generalized method of moments (GMM) as an estimation method for 32 countries from 2004 to 2020, regulatory performance was found to adversely affect economic growth. Moreover, as regulatory performance improves, public debt is expected to enhance the economic growth of UMIE. These findings are novel, as they provide significant evidence for the importance of improving the regulatory performance of UMIE. Weak regulatory performance might force a government to become the engine of growth instead of the private sector, thus leading to the adverse effect of debt on growth in UMIE. These findings have to several policy implications, particularly regarding reducing bureaucracy and improving regulatory performance in UMIE. Future researchers could extend this study by comparing the results from different groups of economies or countries
