What this index measures

Why it matters

The decisive factor for families relocating for their children's future.

Method

Min–max normalised to a scale of 0–100 against the same country list (ISO 3166-1), source: World Bank WDI + Human Capital Index (CC-BY). Note: the heaviest pillar, harmonised learning outcomes (HD.HCI.HLOS, 28%), rests on 2020 data — the World Bank has not updated the Human Capital Index since 21 Sep 2020.. See Methodology.
