The purpose of the article is to research and analyze indicators that directly effect on the level of country’s human resources development, and assessment of Ukraine’s rating place among other countries. The following methods of scientific research, such as generalization, comparison and analysis were used to achieve the goal. The attention is focused on the fact that in conditions of post-industrial economy, the role of human and its knowledge increase, resulting in implementing the human development concept. This concept is aimed at forming measures to prevent the population impoverishment, unemployment, loss of health by stimulating human development, increasing its role in society, and, at the same time, increasing responsibility to society. The main task of the concept is to ensure the welfare of the person. The article shows the comparative assessment of Ukraine’s ranking among other countries  according to the human development index and its components. The following indicators such as gross national income per capita, average and expected duration of training, average life expectancy at birth were analyzed. It was agreed that economic ability to create and use human resources to a greater extent determines human well-being and is the main criteria for assessing the social security level. Since the background for well-being is income, education, and human health, social security becomes an integrating link between the modern concept of human development and the state social policy. In this manner, everything that reduces welfare, harms a particular person and society as a whole are factors that threaten social security. In this context human resources emerged as a key resource to the state development.

Using Data

This chapter reconsiders the extent to which recent impressive growth performance in India has been associated with poverty reduction, using data collected by the Indian Human Development Surveys, a panel survey conducted in 2004/5 and 2010/11. The panel nature of the survey allows us to link income growth to poverty dynamics, and in particular to movements into and out of poverty as well as chronic poverty. While the overall story in India over this period is one of impressive poverty reduction, the data also reveal some cases of immiserizing growth. This chapter seeks to understand the nature and factors underlying immiserizing growth for the state of Chhattisgarh.

Multidimensional Poverty Index

Abstract The multidimensional poverty index (MPI) was developed by the Oxford Poverty & Human Development Initiative (Ophi) in 2010. The MPI is established on indicators of health, education and standard of living. The concept of multidimensionality is anchored on the theory of poverty and human development elaborated by the indian economist Amartya Sen in the 1980s. The methodology used for the modeling of this study is based on Alkire and Foster - AF (2011) and analyzes the incidence and intensity of poverty. The purpose of this paper focuses on the application of the MPI in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil and uses the Household Sample Survey produced by João Pinheiro Foundation (FJP) in 2009, 2011 and 2013. The results indicate that the MPI is relativaly low, 0.0329 (2009), 0.0226 (2011) and 0.0155 (2013), indicating there is a tendency for decreasing along the years.

O Ensino Médio corresponde a um nível de ensino propício à construção da identidade, projetos de vida e trajetória profissional dos sujeitos. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o Ensino Médio no estado do Amapá, considerando a sua qualidade social, tendo como base os indicadores educacionais oficiais. Utilizamos o levantamento bibliográfico para analisar o ensino médio público brasileiro, suas características e a seus indicadores de qualidade; além disso, utilizaremos dados do INEP sobre os indicadores educacionais de rendimento do Ensino Médio amapaense em 2015, para o desenvolvimento de análises correlacionadas aos índices de Desenvolvimento Humano dos Municípios – IDHM, índice de GINI e o índice de Pobreza. Nossas análises evidenciaram que o Ensino Médio no Amapá, apresentou índices negativos em relação à zona urbana, pois as taxas de Reprovação e Abandono no ano de 2015 foram elevadas. Diferente da zona rural que demonstrou dados positivos referentes ao fluxo no Ensino Médio, no entanto com baixos indicadores de qualidade social. Os maiores centros urbanos do estado, mesmo com a melhor estrutura, não apresentaram os melhores índices de ensino. De forma geral, os dados relacionados ao ensino apresentam disparidades em relação aos índices de desenvolvimento social e humano.Palavras-chave: Ensino Médio; Indicadores educacionais; Qualidade social; Amapá. ABSTRACT: The High School corresponds to a level of education conducive to the construction of the identity, life projects and professional trajectory of the subjects.

The article reveals the peculiarities in the formation of comfortable life features in the regions of Ukraine based on the analysis of the components and the human development index. In particular, it reveals the essenceof the human development concept as one that enables people to develop their potential, to live productively and creatively in tune with their needs and interests. Its goal is to empower each individual in the chosen environment – country, region or specific locality. Human development involves balancing the formation of human abilities to improve their conditions of life. However, the level of regional human development will depend on the potential of the designated area. Since 2012, Ukraine has updated the method of estimating regional Human Development Index by which we can calculate the regional human development index. It includes 33 indicators grouped into six blocks in accordance with the basic aspects of human development. These are reproduction, social position, comfortable life, well-being, worthy work, and education. These indicators were selected on the basis of suitability for the annual calculation of provision available to the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, reliability estimates at the regional level under the specific issues of human development in Ukraine, unambiguous interpretation of the impact on human development, lack of high correlation between individual performance and adequacy of static and dynamic variation. According to the ratings of Human Development Index in 2012, conducted by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine and the Institute of Demography and Social Studies of M.V. Puhta, regions that constantly show high indicators of human development index are Crimea, Kharkiv, Lviv, Transcarpathian and Poltava regions. The largest group consists of regions with the average index indicator of the human development (most regions of Ukraine). Finally, the third group consists of regions with the lowest human development index (Kirovograd, Donetsk, Sumy regions). The results of calculations of regional Human Development Index can serve as a basis for identifying key issues and priorities of each region.
