Rapid economic development in Jabodetabek—a metropolitan area consisting of Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, Tangerang Selatan, and Bekasi—has caused an influx of migrants to the region, leading to the highest urban concentration in Indonesia. Despite such development, the poverty rate has remained relatively stagnant at around 6% since the early 2000s. Due to their formulation being based on the national poverty profile, the poverty reduction programs in Jabodetabek may not be effective.

This study collected opinions from leaders at the national level supported by two subnational case studies to better reflect urban and rural conditions. Data and information at the national level were gathered through in-depth interviews with potential informants; data in the urban and rural case study areas was collected through in-depth interviews and FGDs.
