Supplementary notes

The Human Development Index (HDI) is a statistic ranking countries around the world by level of human development. It is expressed as a value between 0 and 1. Since 1990, the HDI has been published in the annual Human Development Report of the UNDP. Highly developed countries have a HDI value of at least 0.8. The HDI is based on a large number of indicators, including, life expectancy at birth, literacy rate, education levels and gross national income (GNI) per capita.
