Detailed Solution

Gender equality is not a parameter. The Human Development Index aims to measure development's social and economic dimensions. The variables considered in the estimation are long and healthy life, knowledge, and a decent standard of living. The three components are measured by per capita income for the standard of living; literacy rates estimate education levels, and the health aspect is evaluated by life expectancy at birth.
