Summary
This year marks the 30th Anniversary of the first Human Development Report and of the introduction of the Human Development Index (HDI). HDRO’s efforts to measure gender inequalities began in the 1995 Human Development Report on gender, and recent reports have included two indices on gender, one accounting for differences between men and women in the HDI dimensions, the other a composite of inequalities in empowerment and well-being. This briefing note is organized into six sections. Table A: Nigeria’s HDI trends based on consistent time series data and new goalposts
