Explain the concept of human development with an example.                                                [Foreign 2006]

Answer:

Human development is based on the idea that education and health are integral to human well-being because only when people have the ability to read and write and the ability to lead a long and healthy life, they will be able to make other choices which they value. Therefore human welfare should be increased through investments in education and health, e.g., every individual has a right to get basic education and basic health care. Every individual has a right to be literate and lead a healthy life.
