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 at http://hdr.undp.org/en 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. Expected years : Number of years 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. Mean years : Average number of years of education received by people ages 25 and older, converted from education attainment levels using official durations of each level. Gross national income (GNI) per capita: Aggregate income of an economy generated by its production and its ownership of factors of 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.
