The next Human Development Report is based on 2023 data and is scheduled for release in March or April 2025.
Background
The Human Development Report (HDR) is a comprehensive assessment published by the United Nations Development Programme that measures quality of life and well-being across multiple dimensions, including health, education, and standard of living. The U.S. consistently ranks among developed nations but faces ongoing challenges in healthcare accessibility, economic inequality, and social indicators.
Key factors that will influence the 2025 report (based on 2023 data) include:
Healthcare system performance and outcomes
Economic conditions and job markets
Social indicators and regional disparities
Access to education and services
Environmental quality and sustainability measures
Resolution Criteria
This market will resolve based on the official 2025 Human Development Report's assessment of the United States, comparing 2023 data to the previous year. The resolution will be determined by The U.S. Human Development Index (HDI) value:
YES, if it shows an increase from the prior year
NO, if the HDI value does not increase.
Considerations
The HDR sometimes revises its methodology or updates historical data, which could affect year-over-year comparisons.
The report may be delayed beyond the expected March/April 2025 release date.
