Elucidating the concept of human development, UNDP Human Development Report (1997) describes it as the process of widening people’s choices and the level of well-being they achieve are at the core of the notion of human development such theories are neither finite nor static. But regardless of the level of development, the three essential choices for people are to lead a long and healthy life, to acquire knowledge and to have access to the resources needed for a decent standard of living. Human development does not end there, however, other choices highly-valued by many people range from political economic and social freedom to opportunities for being creative and productive and enjoying self-respect and guaranteed human rights. The Human Development Index is a statistical tool used to measure a country’s overall achievement in its social and economical dimensions. The social and economic dimensions of a country are based on the health of people, their level of education attainment and their standard of living.
