Direct answer

For Geography, this page helps you revise economic and social development measures including GNI per head, birth rate, death rate, infant mortality, life expectancy, people per doctor, literacy rate, access to safe water and HDI in Section B: The changing economic world.

Key terms

  • GNI per head: Gross National Income divided by the population, indicating the average income per person in a country.
  • HDI: Human Development Index, a composite measure of life expectancy, education, and per capita income indicators used to rank countries.
