This document discusses factors that determine a nation's competitiveness and development strategies for the 21st century. It argues that true prosperity comes from productivity, not just economic growth. A nation's competitiveness depends on macroeconomic stability, a supportive business environment, sophisticated company operations, developed clusters in key industries, and strong regions. Successful development involves continuous upgrading of the business environment to enable more advanced ways of competing.
The Social Progress Index and The Challenge to Brazil
Professor Michael E. Porter unveiled the Social Progress Index in Sao Paulo, Brazil on September 4, 2013, discussing how to measure national development and the challenges Brazil's social progress faces.
Can We Achieve the SDGs?
Social Progress Imperative CEO Michael Green presented at Impact Summit Europe on March 22, 2016. He explained that the new Sustainable Development Goals or 'Global Goals' set by the United Nations are achievable, but not with business as usual. Impact investing has a role to play in funding what works to improve social progress, not just what causes the economy to grow.

This document provides an overview of the 2016 Social Progress Index, which measures social and environmental outcomes in 153 countries. It discusses the framework and methodology used to create the index, presenting results by dimension, component, and country/region. Key findings include:
- Countries with high social progress tend to be wealthy, like Finland and Canada at the top, while poorer countries rank lower, like Central African Republic and Afghanistan.
- However, social progress does not perfectly correlate with GDP, as countries can achieve similar social outcomes with different levels of wealth.
- Younger people are more likely to live in lower social progress countries than older populations.
- Latin America generally ranks in the middle, with Chile, Costa Rica, Uruguay
Let's Define the World We Want
Social Progress Imperative CEO Michael Green presented at the Imagine Solutions Conference on February 27, 2017. He introduced the increasingly popular Social Progress Index, explained its use in communities ranging from the Brazilian Amazon to the European Union, and offered a preview of what a Social Progress Index for the United States at the state or intra-state level of detail might offer those looking to advance social progress in that country.

2016 Social Progress Index Media Brief - Long Version
This document discusses the Social Progress Index, which measures social and environmental outcomes in countries across three dimensions: Basic Human Needs, Foundations of Wellbeing, and Opportunity. It provides an overview of the Index framework and indicators. It then analyzes results, finding that countries can achieve similar levels of social progress at varying levels of GDP per capita. It also examines country performance scorecards that evaluate strengths and weaknesses relative to economic peers. Finally, it discusses some thematic findings, such as younger people being more likely to live in lower social progress countries.
Introducing the Social Progress Index
This document introduces the Social Progress Index, which measures social and environmental outcomes separately from economic data. It discusses the index's framework and indicators across three dimensions: Basic Human Needs, Foundations of Wellbeing, and Opportunity. It notes that globally, areas of weakness include personal rights and tolerance/inclusion. Country rankings and comparisons to economic peers are also presented. The document promotes using the index to inform policy through the Social Progress Network, such as existing partnerships in Latin America, Europe, and planned work in India and the United States.
Michael Green at the IPSP Lisbon Conference, 27 January 2017
The document discusses the Social Progress Index (SPI), which measures social and environmental outcomes separately from economic indicators like GDP. It provides the framework for the SPI, which evaluates over 50 indicators across 12 categories. It outlines the SPI's design principles and discusses establishing national and regional SPI networks in countries around the world. It also describes using the SPI to measure social progress in cities and regions within the European Union. Lastly, it discusses five lessons learned from implementing the SPI, including using it alongside GDP, keeping it simple, allowing users to drive innovation, collaborating with others tracking social goals, and that leaders are ready for alternative measures of progress.
Social Progress Index for the Administrative Regions of Rio de Janeiro
This document summarizes the results of the Social Progress Index (SPI) for various administrative regions in Rio de Janeiro. It finds that the dimension of basic human needs has the highest score of 75.09. Access to basic knowledge and ecosystem sustainability can be improved, scoring 49.96 and 50.26 respectively. Tolerance and inclusion has a relatively good score of 65.71 while access to advanced education has the lowest component score of 32.36. The document also analyzes SPI scores against per capita income, finding regions with similar incomes can have different SPI scores.
Social Progress Index
Michael E Porter's presentation on Social Progress Index at India's National Competitiveness Form 2017.
Social progress index
The Social Progress Index (SPI) measures social and environmental outcomes in countries across three dimensions - basic human needs, foundations of well-being, and opportunity to progress. It uses 54 indicators to assess relative performance and provide a more holistic view of societal development than economic factors alone. The SPI was created as a complement to GDP because GDP provides an incomplete picture of human development. It follows specific design principles and frameworks to measure and rank countries based on their social progress performance.
Human Development Report 2014
The document is a summary of the 2014 UN Human Development Report. It discusses increasing vulnerabilities globally from factors such as overlapping deprivations affecting over 2.2 billion people, lack of social protections, and precarious employment. It emphasizes building resilience through universal basic social services, social inclusion, responsive institutions, full employment, and social protection systems. Achieving inclusive, resilient, and sustainable human progress requires collective action at both the national and global levels.
Human Development Report 2013
The document summarizes key points from the 2013 Human Development Report, including the rise of developing nations in driving global economic growth and lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty. It notes that China and India doubled per capita economic output in under 20 years. The report shows rapid human development and progress across the globe, especially in low HDI countries. Turkey is highlighted for its favorable economic conditions supporting job growth and strengthening social programs. Turkey's HDI value is 0.722, ranking it 90th globally and showing increases in life expectancy, education, and income. Inequality and gender inequality indices for Turkey are also presented.
Youth Participation Poster
This document examines youth participation in governance in Nigeria. It discusses how lack of youth participation has negative effects and that Nigeria's system relies too heavily on older generations. It presents research questions on youth involvement and hypothesizes that cultural beliefs hinder participation. A survey was administered in Ikorodu and found challenges like exclusion, unemployment, and lack of access to information and services. The conclusion calls for restructuring ministries, increasing education funding, creating youth platforms, and empowering youth to demand accountability and participate positively.
POVERTY PPT
This document summarizes a presentation on poverty in India. It discusses how poverty is estimated, including that the NITI Aayog task force calculates poverty lines based on data from the National Sample Survey Office. It also notes that poverty lines are based on consumption expenditures rather than income. The document outlines how different committees have estimated poverty over time, with the most recent Rangarajan committee setting rural and urban monthly per capita expenditure levels of 972 Rs and 1407 Rs respectively. While India has significantly reduced its poverty rate from 55% to 28% over 10 years, multidimensional poverty remains a challenge requiring more comprehensive solutions.
Knowledge Management for Innovation in Social Policy
The document discusses knowledge management for social policy innovation in the Global South. It outlines that strengthening knowledge management can help improve policy design and implementation for inclusive growth. It also notes the need to enhance South-South policy dialogue to reflect changing global governance. Key points made include that social policies in the South have helped reduce poverty and inequality, while the North faces crises and lacks innovative responses. There are also global inequities in knowledge production that policy dialogue platforms and knowledge sharing aim to address.
Gender analysis
The document discusses gender analysis and its importance and tools for the Gender and Development Planning and Budgeting process. It defines gender analysis as a process to identify the status, roles, responsibilities, access to resources, benefits and opportunities of women and men. It notes that gender analysis is important for identifying gender issues, causes, and relevant programs for the Gender and Development Planning and Budget. Key tools of gender analysis discussed are the Gender-Responsive Problem-Solution Finding Analysis Matrix and guidelines for assessing gender mainstreaming.
Final impact project dev.fin. fin4 dev mooc - digital-artifact
This document discusses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their importance. It outlines the key goals such as ending poverty and hunger, achieving gender equality, ensuring health, education, clean water and sanitation, affordable and clean energy, economic growth, and action on climate change. It emphasizes that implementing the goals is crucial at global, national and local levels through partnerships. Achieving the vision of the SDGs will require coordinated efforts to address today's complex and interconnected issues.
Final impact project dev.fin. fin4 dev mooc - digital-artifact
This document discusses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their importance. It outlines the key goals related to dignity, people, planet, partnership, justice, and prosperity. It emphasizes that universal implementation of the goals is crucial, from the international to local levels. Achieving the vision laid out in the SDGs will require efforts from all sectors of society to ensure sustainability, equity, and peace.
Measuring gender
The document discusses measuring gender dimensions in decent work. It outlines the Decent Work Agenda, which promotes equitable work conditions for women and men through freedom, equity, security, and human dignity. Emerging gender issues in the world of work include gaps in education, skills training, labor participation, informal employment, wages, and executive positions that contribute to feminized poverty. Engendering statistics requires quantitatively and qualitatively measuring all forms of work, collecting gender-disaggregated data, and performing gender-sensitive analyses.
Even It Up - Time to End Extreme Inequality: Comments by Dean Jolliffe
Comments prepared for launch event of “Even it Up: Time to End Extreme Poverty”
IMF, October 31, 2014.
The views represented in these comments are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the World Bank.
Policy Research Report 2014
The document summarizes key points from a World Bank policy research report on the twin goals of ending extreme poverty by 2030 and boosting shared prosperity. It finds that business as usual will not achieve ending poverty, and growth alone must be inclusive to benefit the poorest 40% in each country. It also notes challenges like climate change that could hamper progress, and limitations in measurement due to data availability and quality.
Young faces: 30 under 30
The 10 Days of Activism campaign is an international effort to advocate for youth-centered development. This year's theme from September 1-10 is "Nothing for us without us," emphasizing that youth should have a central role in decisions affecting their lives. As part of the campaign, 30 young leaders ages 15-30 will be highlighted for their work promoting meaningful youth participation, comprehensive sexuality education, and youth-friendly health services. Applications are due by July 20th, and a selection committee will choose the 30 "Young Faces" representing different regions, ages, and types of youth-led actions. The selected youth will share their stories through social media to inspire others during the 10-day campaign period.
Disrupting the Status Quo: From Economic Growth to Social Progress
Michael Porter is one of the world’s leading thinkers on strategy and competitiveness and leading authority on the competitiveness of nations and regions. His work, particularly on the Global Competitiveness report has helped improve the lives of millions of people, by helping countries choose evidence-based policies to accelerate economic progress. In recent years, Porter has raised the question of why the legitimacy of business has fallen to levels not seen in recent history. His 2011 work on creating shared value addresses such questions and provides concrete solutions. Today Porter is wrestling with a related but broader challenge. His talk will outline a new frontier and framework for thinking about development: social progress.

Mr. Christian Loupeda (USA)Elif Urgan - Social impact management
This document discusses social impact management and measurement. It defines social impact as creating positive change for people directly or indirectly. Measuring impact is important so organizations can allocate resources efficiently and create as much impact as possible. There are different methodologies for managing and measuring impact, including social return on investment, stakeholder maps, and theory of change. The document provides examples of organizations using these various impact measurement strategies to better achieve their objectives and increase their social impact.
SOCIAL INNOVATION LABs-en (Dr Atef Elshabrawy for SIE)
The document discusses social innovation labs and their role in tackling complex social issues. It proposes a series of lab programs to help develop social entrepreneurs and innovations. The first program discussed is a Social Innovation Lab that would help participants: 1) uncover pressing social problems in their community; 2) ideate possible solutions; 3) prototype early solutions; and 4) launch ideas to attract support. The goal is to enhance participants' awareness of social issues and ability to create innovative social business initiatives to address challenges. The labs would use design thinking methods and business modeling tools to prototype solutions.
Developing a Coherent Social Strategy for Enterprise Innovation
Social Business applications for the enterprise have long promised innovation as one of the desired use cases. In this Webinar, Charlene Li, Founder, Altimeter Group, and Milind Pansare, V.P. Product Marketing, Mindjet (Spigit), present customer use cases and strategies to enable repeatable business innovation with people, process and technology (enterprise innovation management software platforms).

Bill Buchan, Lloyds Banking Group: Change - the world
This document discusses developing change management as a desirable career path for young people in Scotland. It outlines four key objectives: developing awareness of change careers for youth; creating visibility around required skills; building pathways into change roles; and ensuring opportunities. The document proposes focusing on value, people, openings/careers, and pipeline. It argues that change skills are important as 65-80% of future jobs don't yet exist. The approach involves collaboration between change professionals, government, schools, universities and others to highlight change management and evolve it as a successful profession.

What does the Social Progress Index tell us?
The document discusses the Social Progress Index, which measures social and environmental outcomes in countries across three dimensions: Basic Human Needs, Foundations of Wellbeing, and Opportunity. It provides data on 50 indicators for 128 countries. While global social progress has increased slightly since 2014, progress remains uneven. Countries like Denmark and the Netherlands score highest overall, while Central African Republic and South Africa lag behind. The Social Progress Index aims to assess how societies are progressing beyond just economic measures like GDP.
Youth Progress Index Presentation to the European Parliament
The Youth Progress Index is one of the most innovative tools for measuring the quality of life of young people because it reflects the things most important to their safety, health and freedom, and like all our indexes, it remains independent of economic indicators.

Findings from the Social Progress Index: US States
The Social Progress Index: US States is an objective, transparent measure that compares quality of life in all 50 states. The Social Progress Index is meant to complement, not replace, economic measures like GDP per capita and Median Household Income. These measures only tell half the story about what life is really like for ordinary Americans. The Social Progress Index™ highlights the issues and the individuals that are invisible when only looking at changes in the economy. The Social Progress Imperative, a US-based nonprofit, created the index to help local officials, businesses and community organizations understand how well people are truly living, how economic changes are affecting quality of life, and what improvements can have the greatest impact on society.

Symposium Laudato Si Presentation
The world average score on the Social Progress Index rose from 63.19 in 2014 to 64.85 in 2017, a 2.6% increase, but progress remains uneven. While some areas like nutrition, basic medical care, water and sanitation have seen improvements focussed on by the UN Millennium Development Goals, personal rights and political freedoms declined in many countries. Overall performance is mixed across world regions, with some countries and areas improving steadily over time but others declining or stagnating. The data shows that GDP per capita does not necessarily determine a country's social progress score, as some nations over-perform and others under-perform relative to their economic wealth.

2017 Indice de Progreso Social
Aunque existe una estrecha relación entre el desempeño económico, medido por el PIB PPA per cápita, 1 y el desempeño en el Índice de Progreso Social, algunos países logran un nivel de progreso social mucho más alto en comparación con países con un PIB per cápita similar. Por ejemplo, Nepal logra un puntaje de 60.08 en el índice de Progreso Social, con un PIB per cápita de $2,312, mientras
que Yemen, con un PIB per cápita de $2,649 logra apenas un 43.46. El Índice demuestra que el crecimiento económico no es suficiente para el progreso social. Países y comunidades que quieren mejores vidas para sus ciudadanos necesitan ir más allá del crecimiento económico a la hora de diseñar sus estrategias de desarrollo.
2017 Social Progress Index Findings Presentation
The 2017 Social Progress Index launched June 21. Though there is a strong relationship between economic performance, as measured by GDP PPP per capita, and performance on the Social Progress Index, some countries achieve much higher social progress relative to countries with similar GDP per capita. For example, Nepal scores 60.08 on the Social Progress Index with a GDP per capita of $2,312, while Yemen, with a GDP per capita of $2,649, scores only 43.46. The Index demonstrates that economic growth is not sufficient for social progress. Countries and communities that want better lives for their citizens need to go beyond economic growth alone in designing their development strategies.

YO! FESTIVAL 2017: Let's Define the Europe that We Want
The document discusses findings from the Social Progress Index regarding social progress in the European Union. It finds that if the EU were a country, it would rank between the United States and Slovenia in terms of social progress. The EU performs best in providing basic human needs and education but struggles most with opportunity, especially tolerance and inclusion. Health and wellness is also an area of weak performance. While social progress increases with GDP per capita, economic growth alone does not determine social progress as regions with similar GDPs can have vastly different social progress levels.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
