For those of you interested in International Development, you may want to become aware of the United Nations Development Program and the UNDP's Human Development Report. First published in 1990, this report, in the words of the Association for Women's Rights in Development (AWID), "attempts to measure how far nations have gone in ensuring that their citizens are healthy, safe, politically engaged and equal to each other." You can download the report for free online, or, for a brief overview of the report, see AWID's review of the 2010 report.
AWID notes key conclusions from the report and, as expected, it also offers a few remarks about gender inequity as noted in the UNDP's findings.
