The Human Development Index is a statistic composite index of life expectancy, education, and per capita income indicators, which are used to rank countries into four tiers of human development. A country scores a higher Human Development Index when the lifespan is higher, the education level is higher, and the GDP per capita is higher. The Human Development Index was developed by Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq and was further used to measure the country’s development by the United Nations Development Program.
