Development Indicators

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a global framework adopted by the United Nations (UN) in 2015 to address the world's most pressing challenges by 2030. These 17 goals provide a roadmap for achieving a sustainable future by balancing economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental protection.

The Gender Development Index (GDI) is a measure developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to assess gender disparities in human development achievements. It compares the Human Development Index (HDI) values for males and females within a country.

The Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) is a comprehensive measure that assesses poverty beyond income by evaluating multiple deprivations faced by individuals in their daily lives. It was developed by the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

The Human Development Index (HDI) is a composite measure developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to assess and rank countries based on their level of human development. It goes beyond economic indicators like GDP and considers factors that affect the quality of life.
