Human Development Index 1980 - 2013

Now that the year 2014 is coming to an end, let's take a look at the Human Development Index (HDI) over the years 1980 - 2014.

DEFINITION OF 'HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX
The HDI is a tool developed by the United Nations to measure and rank countries' levels of social and economic development.

The HDI is based on four criteria:

1. Life expectancy at birth 
2. Mean years of schooling 
3. Expected years of schooling 
4. Gross national income per capita. 

The HDI makes it possible to track changes in development levels over time and to compare development levels in different countries.

How does your country rank on HDI?

Wish you all a nice Sylvester evening tomorrow!
