Abstract

The development of the concept of inclusive growth in the past decade has become important in research studies. Increased economic growth is expected to provide benefits for reducing poverty, reduce income inequality, increase employment opportunities and improve environmental sustainability. The purpose of this study was to analyze inclusive growth (IG) in Bengkulu province. The technique of collecting data uses library research. Poverty-Equivalent Growth Rate (PEGR) was developed in the measurement of inclusive growth. The results of the study show that the period 2001-2016, in general, the economic growth of Bengkulu province was not inclusive. The results showed the coefficient of inclusive growth in poverty (IGp) of 0.043, inequality (IGin) of 0.043, labor (IGem) of 0.021, and environmental sustainability (IGen) of 0.012 lower than the coefficient of economic growth (Ĝg) of 0.055. The development strategy through government policy is focused on accelerating pro-poor economic growth, providing employment, equitable income and reducing environmental damage for sustainable development.
