HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

What is the Human Development Index?

What HDI means and the three basic dimensions summarised by the index.

Short answer

HDI combines health, education, and a decent standard of living into one index. The 2025 value of 75.90 is not a percentage of the population.

What the measure covers

The index summarises development outcomes but does not replace its component indicators.

HDI is a composite index combining three dimensions of human development. State it as an index value, not a percentage.

How to compare it

Use the same year, method, and geography. Read a change in the total with its health, education, and living-standard components.

Limits on conclusions

A national value simplifies variation across regions and population groups. Consult the source publication for detail and the full method.
