The Nation Newspaper Edun, UNDP seek efforts to tackle development challenges

The 2023/’24 Human Development Report , titled: Breaking the Gridlock: Reimagining Cooperation In A Polarised World, reveals a troubling trend.It also shows that there was a rebound in the global HDI – a summary measure reflecting a country’s Gross National Income per capita, education, and life expectancy – which has been partial, incomplete, and unequal.

In the last 34 years, UNDP has released the Human Development Report and Index annually, ranking all countries by health, education, and living standards. “Polarisation within and amongst our countries is creating ‘a global gridlock’ and preventing us from forging international cooperation towards addressing our shared challenges. This polarisation, whether at the sub-national, national, regional, or global levels, signifies an erosion of trust, that is dividing societies into opposing camps and poisoning domestic and international cooperation.”

“The report calls us to change course; otherwise, the world may not recover from the decline in human progress.
