2. Definition of Human Development
 Human development is defined as the process of enlarging people's freedoms
and opportunities and improving their well-being. Human development is about
the real freedom ordinary people have to decide who to be, what to do, and how
to live. The human development concept was developed by economist Mahbub ul
Haq.

3. Human development refers to the biological and psychological
development of the human being throughout the lifespan. It consists
of the development from infancy, childhood, and adolescence to
adulthood. The scientific study of psychological human development
is sometimes known as Developmental psychology.
Why we study Human Development?

4. These ideas helped pave the way for the human development approach, which is
about expanding the richness of human life, rather than simply the richness of the
economy in which human beings live. It is an approach that is focused on creating fair
opportunities and choices for all people. So how do these ideas come together in the
human development approach?
People: the human development approach focuses on improving the lives people lead
lead rather than assuming that economic growth will lead, automatically, to greater
opportunities for all. Income growth is an important means to development, rather
than an end in itself.
Human Development Approach

5.  Opportunities: human development is about giving people more freedom and
opportunities to live lives they value. In effect this means developing people’s
abilities and giving them a chance to use them.
 Choices: human development is, fundamentally, about more choice. It is about
providing people with opportunities, not insisting that they make use of them. No
one can guarantee human happiness, and the choices people make are their
concern. The process of development – human development - should at least
create an environment for people, individually and collectively, to develop to their
full potential and to have a reasonable chance of leading productive and creative
lives that they value.

Involve changes in the
individual’s physical nature

10. Always mentally active in seeking to understand
the world around them ,children learn in a
variety of ways; a wide range of teaching
strategies and interaction are effective in
supporting all these kind of learning.

11. The Importance of Human Development in Terms of
Living Conditions in Different Countries
Human development is very important in terms of
living conditions in different countries. The statement
“any society committed to improving the lives of its
people must also be committed to full and equal
for all” is true. The UN considers three factors to
calculate human development in a country. These
factors cover many aspects of a country, including
social development in a country. Income, education,
and healthy living are considered to be the most
important factors in human development, which help
to rid populations of poverty, and support human
rights.

14. The Human Development Index
 The state of the nation is often expressed through GDP (Gross Domestic Product), daily stock
market results, consumer spending levels, and national debt figures. But these numbers provide
only a partial view of how people are faring.
 The Human Development Index was developed as an alternative to simple money metrics. It is an
easy-to-understand numerical measure made up of what most people believe are the very basic
ingredients of human well-being: health, education, and income. The first Human Development
Index was presented in 1990. It has been an annual feature of every Human Development Report
since, ranking virtually every country in the world from number one (currently Iceland) to number
177 (currently Sierra Leone).
 This composite index has become one of the most widely used indices of well-being around the
world and has succeeded in broadening the measurement and discussion of well-being beyond
the important, but nevertheless narrow, confines of income. In a number of countries, the Human
Development Index is now an official government statistic; its annual publication inaugurates
serious political discussion and renewed efforts, nationally and regionally, to improve lives.

15. The American Human Development Index

16. Why Health, Education, and Income?
 Most people would agree that a long and healthy life, access to knowledge, and
a decent material standard of living are the basic building blocks of well-being
and opportunity. They are also the building blocks of the American Human
Development Index as well as the U.N. Human Development Index upon which it
is modeled. These three core capabilities are universally valued around the world,
and measurable, intuitively sensible, and reliable indicators exist to represent
them—two critical considerations in the construction of a composite index.

18. SOCIALIZATION
• Important part of human development.
• Mixing socially with others.
• Develop language skills.
• Builds self esteem.
• Affects mindset
• Personality is the product of society.
• 2 types of socialization :
1. Primary socialization
2. Secondary socialization.

32. HUMAN DEVELOPMENT DEPENDS
PRIMARILY ON ENVIRONMENTAL
FACTORS, NOT GENETIC FACTORS

One of the biggest issues in Developmental Psychology is the decades-
long debate on the battle between nature and nurture. Many argue that
we are the way we are as individuals because of our inherited genes, but
there are those who claim that our environment, cultural experiences,
and social interactions with other people are the reasons why we have
developed over the years as human beings.
