Knowledge Networks

The Human Development Report Office facilitates the exchange of experiences and ideas amongst the members of two extensive networks of specialists and practicioners. We also wish to familiarize you with the activities of parallel networks that can offer great opportunities for learning and sharing amongst peers.

HDR-Net: Human Development Reports Network

Over the years, the global, regional, national and sub-national Human Development Reports have inspired a global movement to articulate human development priorities in every region and to mobilize action for policy-making. The HDR-Net, established in 1999, continues to strengthen this movement by serving as dynamic springboards for professional knowledge sharing and learning on human development issues. The network has evolved into a community of over 1000 human development professionals from within UNDP, government, academia, research and NGO communities.

This forum covers focused technical issues related to composite indices, data collection methods and disparities between national and international data. HDRStats-Net consists of over 800 members from national statistics offices, academia, regional statistical commissions and members of the UN family.
