United Nations Human Development Report

United Nations Human Development Report

The description of the United Nations Human Development Report says the following:

“The Report identifies more than 40 countries in the developing world that have done better than had been expected in human development terms in recent decades, with their progress accelerating markedly over the past ten years. The Report analyzes the causes and consequences of these countries’ achievements and the challenges that they face today and in the coming decades.

Each of these countries has its own unique history and has chosen its own distinct development pathway. Yet they share important characteristics and face many of the same challenges. They are also increasingly interconnected and interdependent.”

Your assignment is to find one of these 40 countries in the Report and write a paragraph summarizing why that country has done better than expected in “human development” terms.

The report is available under Content.
