	Dashboard 1. Quality of human development
	Country groupings (terciles)
	Top third	Middle third		Bottom third
	Three-colour coding is used to visualize partial grouping of countries by indicator. For each indicator countries are divided into three groups of approximately equal size (terciles): the top third, the middle third and the bottom third. Aggregates are colour coded using the same tercile cutoffs. See Notes after the table.

Notes

Three-colour coding is used to visualize partial grouping of countries and aggregates by indicator.For each indicator countries
are divided into three groups of approximately equal size (terciles): the top third, the middle third and the bottom third. Aggregates are colour coded using the same tercile cutoffs. See Technical note 6 at http://hdr.undp.org/sites/default/files/hdr2018_technical_notes.pdf for details about partial grouping in this table.

Definitions

Lost health expectancy: Relative difference between life expectancy and healthy life expectancy, expressed as the percentage of life expectancy at birth.

Physicians: Number of medical doctors (physicians), both generalists and specialists, expressed per 10,000 people.

Hospital beds: Number of hospital beds available, expressed per 10,000 people.

Pupil-teacher ratio, primary school:Average number of pupils per teacher in primary education.

Vulnerable employment: Percentage of employed people engaged as unpaid family workers and own-account workers.

Rural population with access to electricity: People living in rural areas with access to electricity, expressed as a percentage of the total rural population. It includes electricity sold commercially (both on grid and off grid) and self-generated electricity but excludes unauthorized connections.

Population using improved drinking-water sources: Percentage of the population using improved drinking-water sources,
which by nature of their construction and design are likely to protect the source from outside contamination, in particular from faecal matter. Improved drinking water sources
