Abstract

Rural poverty is a multidimensional issue that involves various actors with differing perspectives and roles. This study aims to explore and compare the ways in which rural communities, government institutions, and international community perceive poverty in rural Indonesia. Using a literature review approach, this paper examines previous research, policy documents, and reports from international agencies over the past two decades. The findings reveal that rural communities tend to understand poverty as a condition marked by limited access to basic services and economic opportunities. In contrast, government actors often frame poverty reduction through programmatic and structural interventions. Meanwhile, the international community views rural poverty as part of global inequality and the broader challenge of sustainable development. This study highlights the importance of holistic and collaborative approaches in designing poverty reduction  policies that are both locally responsive and aligned with national and global development agendas.
