Answers
Explanation:
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has used the criterion of Human Development Index to measure the development of countries. HDI is calculated on the basis of:
★ Per capita income : When the total national income of the country is divided by its population, we get the per capita income.
★ Life expectancy: It measures the average age of a person in a country. It helps us to know the health facilities of the country.
★ Literacy rate: Education is also one of the most important criteria for the development of a country.
♦ For World Bank comparing countries, their income is considered to be one of the most important attributes. Countries with higher income are more developed than others with less income.
