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.  

Latest Human Development Index shows overall slowdown in growth

In 16 countries human development levels for women are equal or higher than those for men  according to the new Gender Development Index    

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).   
The lower human development groups appear to be improving at a higher rate - grounds for optimism that the gap between higher and lower human development groups is narrowing.
