Abstract
Poverty is a main problem for growth especially in a developing country, Indonesia. The government’s effort to overcome a poverty problem by encouraging economic growth and a living standard through improvement in the Human Development Index tends to be off target, so the population living below the poverty line is still found. This research analyses The Impact of Economic Growth and Human Development Index on Poverty in Riau Province in 2010-2018 via a quantitative analysis method with panel data regression. The result of this research shows Economic growth has no significant effect on poverty, while the Human Development Index has a significant negative effect on poverty.
Keywords: Poverty, Economic growth, Human Development Index, Panel data regression
