Human Development Report:

• The Human Development Report (HDR) is an annual Human Development Index report published by the Human Development Report Office of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
• Each report also presents an updated set of indices, including the Human Development Index (HDI), which is a measure of average achievement in the basic dimensions of human development across countries, and a compendium of key development statistics relevant to the report theme.
• The Human Development Index (HDI) is a summary measure of average achievement in key dimensions of human development: a long and healthy life, being knowledgeable, and having a decent standard of living.
• The Human Development Index (HDI) is an index that measures key dimensions of human development.
• The three key dimensions are:
  • A long and healthy life – measured by life expectancy.
  • Access to education – measured by expected years of schooling of children at school-entry age and mean years of schooling of the adult population.
  • And a decent standard of living – measured by Gross National Income per capita adjusted for the price level of the country.
• This entry provides a basic overview of the Human Development Index over the last decades using the standard HDI methodology of the UNDP

Hence, the Human Development Report published by compares countries based on the educational levels of the people, their health status and per capita income.
