The human dimension of development has emerged as a very important issue. This issue questions the development goals which are considered less oriented towards humans and their human rights. Therefore, talking about the success of development is no longer limited to existing measuring tools such as GDP per capita income but has focused on the object of development itself, namely human development. In the sense of how to improve human resources (HR) so that they will be more able to participate optimally and be utilized in development.
