Getting and using the data

Each year the Human Development Report (HDR) presents a wealth of statistical information on different aspects of human development. All these data are available for download here in several different ways:

		Get data by country, indicator or table You may either select a country to see all its data from the indicator tables of the Report or view the data by a specific indicator for all countries. Alternately, you may access the 32 indicator tables in the most recent Human Development Report, in either Excel or PDF format, and view them on-screen or download the data for future reference.
