According to 2023-2024 Human Development Report from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Human Development Index (HDI) stands at a new high following steep decline during 2020 and 2021. Rich countries experienced unprecedented development, yet half of the world’s poorest nations continue to languish below their pre-COVID crisis levels. The report identified Switzerland, Norway and Iceland leading the national human development indices, while Central African Republic (CAR), South Sudan and Somalia lagged the furthest behind.
