Abstract: ABSTRAK This study aims to analyze the effect of the education, health, and economic expenditures in Human Development Index in districts/cities of the Province of Bengkulu, Indonesia. This research was conducted using panel data, consisting of 10 districts/cities for 2014–2021. The analytical method used is panel data regression analysis. After conducting the test, the right model to use in this study is the Fixed Effect Model. The research results show that health expenditure has a significant positive effect on the HDI. In contrast, education and economic expenditures have no effect on the HDI. The Regional Government in the Province of Bengkulu is expected to maintain consistency in increasing the expenditure, especially education and economic expenditures, which are still fluctuating. In addition, local governments should also implement a policy of at least 20% of the APBD (Regional Revenues and Expenditures Budget) to be allocated to the education expenditure.
