What is the H.D.I in Somalia?
The Human Development Index (HDI) is a comparative measure of life expectancy, literacy, education, and standards of living for countries worldwide. It is a standardized measure of well-being that combines various indicators into a single number between 0 and 1, where 0 represents the lowest possible human development and 1 represents the highest possible human development.
According to the 2021 Human Development Report, Somalia's HDI value for 2020 is 0.517, which puts the country in the low human development category, ranking 189th out of 191 countries. This indicates that Somalia faces significant challenges in terms of human development, including low life expectancy, limited access to education and healthcare, and poor standards of living.
