undp differs from world bank in criteria of mesuring development
Answers
Yes they are different because
1. World Bank only take average income of country for measuring development.
2. But UNDP take literacy rate, infant mortality rate, and other important criteria for measuring the development of counties...
Answer: Criterion used by world bank to measure development is on the basis of income, countries which have higher per capita income are considered as rich countries and countries having lower per capita income are poor countries.
Criterion used by UNDP for measuring development is by following the process of estimating HDI with simple average indices like longevity i.e. health knowledge, education and per capita income. it does not rely only on per capita income as in case of world bank. According to human development report education and health are also indicators of development beside food, clothing and shelter.
