Hanoi (VNA) - Vietnam has remained a high human development countrythrough the
difficult years of the COVID-19 pandemic, and human development continuesto be a
focus of the country’s development strategy, UNDP ResidentRepresentative Ramla
Khalidi said, as the United Nations Development Programme(UNDP) announced its
new report on late March 13.

The 2023/24 Human Development Report (HDR),titled “Breaking the Gridlock:
Reimagining cooperation in a polarized world”,shows that Vietnam's Human
Development Index (HDI) value for 2022 is 0.726,positioning it at 107 out of the
193 countries and territories.

Between 1990 and 2022, the nation's HDIvalue changed from 0.492 to 0.726, an
improvement of nearly 50%. In the 1990swhen UNDP introduced the HDI, Vietnam was
at the relatively lower end of theranking, but now it is in the middle of the
ranking, having made consistentprogress over the past 30 years.

Vietnam ranks 91 out of the 166 countries inthe Gender Inequality Index, which
considers inequality across three dimensionsof reproductive health, empowerment
and the labour market. “Vietnam has donewell in some respects, for example
access to education and labour forceparticipation, however a persistent gender
division of labour reserves morestable, highly paid jobs for men, and women
still account for a small share ofleadership roles in Government, the National
Assembly and in the privatesector,” she said.

According to the report, uneven developmentprogress is leaving the poorest
behind, exacerbating inequality, and stokingpolitical polarisation on a global
scale. The result is a dangerous gridlockthat must be urgently tackled through
collective action./.
