Abstract

This study aims to find out and analyse the relationship between education with poverty in Indonesia Education is measured by the level of education of the poor, while poverty is measured by the percentage of the population with poor status is they who live below the poverty line. This study uses an explanatory survey method with secondary data in the form of time series data during the period 2004-2015 obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics to obtain poverty data. The results show that education has a strong and negative relationship with poverty in Indonesia.
