Asia-Pacific Human Development Reports

The Asia-Pacific regional Human Development Report (APHDR) is an important resource and instrument to explore critical development concerns. The report informs policies and actions from a human development perspective, putting people at the centre of development debates. As a regional public good, the APHDR focuses on issues that are of common concern to several countries in the region, have sensitivities that are better addressed at a regional level, or have clear cross-border dimensions, calling attention to the fact that development challenges are no longer confined within geographic spaces.
