Abstract

As per the Human Development Report 2021–2022, the nature of human development is different across various nations of the world. This study tries to analyze the status across nations of South Asia. To analyze the status, secondary data have been collected from the UNDP website for human development. The analysis is done using simple statistical tools such as percentages and mean, and the results are presented using tables and diagrams. It is observed that among the various nations, Afghanistan and Pakistan are underdeveloped as compared to the others, although the South Asian region is in a moderate state. Some countries such as Maldives and Sri Lanka are highly human-developed. However, the public expenditure on health and education in the South Asian region is less than in the other regions. Hence, the countries of this region are unable to perform well in human development. Therefore, it is recommended that countries of South Asia need to enhance investment in health, education, and food security so that countries can perform well in human development.
