The study aimed to determine the poverty line (PL) and the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) integrated with SDGs. Quantitative data on PL and MPI were collected from the central statistics agency, including income, education access, health services, and decent living standards. The data that has been collected are analyzed descriptively to describe the poverty profile in districts/cities in Central Java, Indonesia. The analysis data compares PL and the MPI to identify the differences and gaps. The findings show the existing poverty alleviation programs were still sectoral and partial, so a holistic and coordinated approach was needed. The study highlights the importance of multidimensional strategies to improve quality of life, aligned with the SDGs to ensure effective poverty alleviation. © The Authors.
