Determinants of Human Development Index:
- To keep things simple, HDI is prepared using three factors namely,
(1) Life expectancy,
(2) Education and
(3) Income.
- Life expectancy refers to the expected number of years a child will live at the time of birth, data on education depicts social achievements whereas income data depicts the standard of living.
- Note that while calculating HDI instead of considering absolute values, average of all the three values is measured.
