This study discusses government intervention in poverty alleviation in Indonesia by
placing poverty as a multidimensional phenomenon that encompasses economic,
educational, health, infrastructure, and socio-cultural aspects. Using a descriptive
qualitative method based on literature studies, this study examines various
government policies and evaluates challenges and formulates strategies to strengthen
them. The results of the study show that government intervention has made a
significant contribution to reducing poverty rates, but its effectiveness is still hampered
by inaccurate targeting, weak inter-agency coordination, infrastructure limitations,
and low community participation. In addition, Islamic values such as justice,
trustworthiness, and mutual assistance reinforce the urgency of transparent and
empowerment-oriented governance. The implications of this study emphasize the
importance of optimizing technology, strengthening institutional capacity, and
participatory community empowerment models as the basis for formulating poverty
alleviation policies that are more adaptive, targeted, and sustainable.
