“…Assets had an average deprivation weight of 0.033 because there were still cassava farm households who did not have cars, trucks, or computers, could not access the internet because they did not have smartphones, and did not have wireless fidelity to support the availability of internet access. Internet access has become necessary in education, economic transactions, entertainment, and communication [44]. The condition of internet network access in the research area was complex and weak.…”

Purpose. This study analyzed multidimensional poverty in cassava farm households in Wonogiri Regency, Indonesia. Methodology / approach. The main method was a descriptive quantitative approach. Moreover, a purposive method was used in determining the study area, considering that Wonogiri Regency is the largest cassava production area in Central Java Province. The number of research samples was 100 cassava farm households. The data analysis method used the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI). Results. The headcount ratio (H) based on an analysis of 0.190 meant that 19 % of cassava farm households had poor multidimensional status, and another 81 % were not poor. Furthermore, the intensity of poverty (A) was 0.333, meaning the average deprivation of poor farmers was 0.333. In addition, the Multidimensional Poverty Index of cassava farm households was 0.063. Although the average weight of deprivation indicators of immunization, child mortality, school participation, sanitation, drinking water, and electricity was 0, it must be maintained to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Originality / scientific novelty. Poverty analysis with the Multidimensional Poverty Index approach has never been carried out on cassava farm households in the study area. Previously, data analysis was conducted in the study area included the potential of cassava in the context of food security, cassava-based agro-industrial development strategies, value-added analysis of cassava-based agro-industry, cost structure analysis and feasibility of cassava farming, risk analysis and distribution of cassava farming income as a result of climate change, income distribution with the Gini Index and Lorentz Curve. Therefore, this study fills the gaps in the literature. Practical value / implications. There is a need to improve the education of farmers’ children and future generations of farmers, and to increase the knowledge and understanding of farmers through advisory work in agriculture. The change of cooking fuel from wood and shrubs to liquefied petroleum gas needs should be implemented to improve the living standard of cassava farm households. The floor and roof components of houses need to be refined to improve the living standards of cassava households and increase access to the Internet as a means of information and communication. Improvements in education, health and living standards as multifaceted components must be carried out to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially in relation to poverty.

“…Indonesia still has confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 across all provinces in the country (Widiawaty, et al, 2022;Azizah, et al, 2021). For identifying cases, the Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay (RT-PCR) was used (Hatami, 2021;Hammad, et al, 2022).…”

Health behavior in COVID-19 pandemic situation needs to be measured in the general population in order to evaluate the implementation of health guidelines in the new normal era, especially WHO recommendations. Knowledge, attitude, and action are domains of health behavior that translated into COVID-19 knowledge, perceived self-care ability, and new normal health behavior in this study. We aimed at describing the knowledge of COVID-19 and the perceived self-care ability, and analyzing the differences of new normal health behavior before and after COVID-19 pandemic situation among adults living in congested communities of Surabaya, Indonesia. This cross-sectional study involved 384 respondents living in five congested communities of Surabaya, Indonesia, which enrolled by means of cluster random sampling. Research variables were measured by a self-developed valid and reliable questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used in data analysis. Ethical clearance was issued. Results showed that most respondents had very good knowledge of COVID-19 (63%) and high level of perceived self-care ability (74%). Before and after pandemic most respondents reported sufficient new normal health behavior (before: 74.7%; after: 83.9%). There was a significant difference of new normal health behavior before and after COVID-19 pandemic situation among adults living in congested communities of Surabaya, Indonesia (p=0.000). New normal health behavior was unoptimal in implementation. Therefore, efforts to improve new normal health behavior need to be done by various parties, not only the individuals, but also health care professionals and the government as policy maker.

“…The Indonesian government declared this outbreak a non-natural national disaster. With a variety of physical and cultural environments, and the fact that Indonesia is an archipelagic country, each region has a different response for dealing with a pandemic (Widiawaty, Lam, Dede, & Asnawi, 2022). The government has implemented various policies to prevent the spread and to interrupt the chain of Covid-19, which has led to monetary activities being affected and even stopping production.…”

During the pandemic, most of the population not only experienced a decrease in income but also experienced losses in various dimensions of life, such as health, education, and a decent standard of living. So far, poverty is measured by expenditure, and it has not been able to capture all of the above dimensions. Assessing multidimensional poverty provides more specific information so that policies are more relevant. This study evaluates factors and policies related to poverty in Indonesia, especially during the pandemic, using pooled data regression. The variables used are the Human Development Index (HDI), gross domestic product (GDP), population, and wages in 34 provinces in Indonesia from 2012 to 2021. The results show that HDI has a significant negative influence and population has a positive and significant influence on poverty. In Indonesia, the pandemic reduced people's incomes, which increased poverty. Unlike other studies, this study shows that the 2020 wage stagnation policy implemented by the government effectively reduces poverty in Indonesia. During this period of economic recovery, the policies for providing employment and meeting public needs are believed to reduce the level of poverty.
