What is the Human Development Report (HDR) Toolkit?
The HDR Toolkit, used by national and regional HDR teams, is intended as a reference for all who are involved in the preparation of HDRs. It is a practical handbook, with clear suggestions for action, minimum standards, specific examples and tools for guidance and support. There is no blueprint for the complex debate and consensus building that shape each report, nor for policy analysis that will result in people-centred options. Through practical guidelines and over 80 illustrations of HDR team practices around the world, the toolkit aims to offer general assistance for achieving excellence in HDR processes, content and advocacy.
