DEFINITIONS
Human Development Index (HDI): A composite
index measuring average achievement in three basic
dimensions of human development—a long and
healthy life, knowledge and a decent standard of
living. See Technical note 1 at http://hdr.undp.org for
details on how the HDI is calculated.
Life expectancy at birth: Number of years a
newborn infant could expect to live if prevailing
patterns of age-specific mortality rates at the time of
birth stay the same throughout the infant’s life.
Mean years of schooling: Average number of
years of education received by people ages 25 and
older, converted from education attainment levels
using official durations of each level.

production, less the incomes paid for the use of
factors of production owned by the rest of the world,
converted to international dollars using PPP rates,
divided by midyear population.

of schooling that a child of school entrance age can
expect to receive if prevailing patterns of age-specific
enrolment rates persist throughout the child’s life.
