Since it was first published in 1990 the annual Human Development Report (HDR), produced by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), has provided us with a mass of increasingly sophisticated data and evidence of economic, social and environmental change across the globe. The 2016 Human Development Report: Development for Everyone, was published in March 2017 and picks up one of the key principles of the Sustainable Development Goals: ‘leave no one behind’ (Ban Ki-moon 2015).
The report begins with a list of global achievements about development (Box 1) and goes on to discuss what strategies and policies are needed to ensure development progress for all.
