2.2 billion people are poor or near-poor, warns 2014 Human Development Report on vulnerability and resilience
Calls
for universal provision of basic social services, and stronger
policies for social protection and full employment to advance and
secure development progress
Persistent vulnerability threatens human development, and unless it
is systematically tackled by policies and social norms, progress will be
neither equitable nor sustainable. This is the core premise of the 2014
Human Development Report, launched here today by Prime Minister of
Japan Shinzō Abe, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)
Administrator Helen Clark and Director of the Human Development Report
Office Khalid Malik.

Levels in human development continue to rise - yet the pace has
slowed for all regions and progress has been highly uneven, according to
the latest Human Development Index (HDI) included in the 2014 Human
Development Report "Sustaining Human Progress: Reducing Vulnerabilities
and Building Resilience", published today by United Nations Development
Programme (UNDP).

grounds for optimism that the gap between higher and lower human
development groups is narrowing.
