Abstract

Poverty alleviation is carried out in a sustainable, on target, comprehensive, coordinative, systematic, integrated manner.
Various programs have been carried out by the local government of South Tapanuli District to alleviate population poverty. However,
this program has not been optimal in increasing and economically independent of the poor. This is due to the unavailability of data on
the poor that is more comprehensive, detailed, accurate, and up to date. The availability of data on the poor can be used for control,
monitoring, and evaluation of population poverty policies that are right on target and sustainable. The research objective was to
formulate a population poverty reduction strategy document based on 5 database classifications. This type of research is descriptive
