Descripción
Human capital is the knowledge, skills,
and health that people accumulate over their lives and that
enable them to realize their potential as productive members
of society is an important contributor to the wealth of all
nations regardless of income status. While Azerbaijan has
achieved remarkable economic growth and poverty reduction
over the last two decades, it lags its regional peers in
terms of human capital accumulation.This report aims to
evaluate Azerbaijan’s progress in human capital development
and to identify opportunities for accelerating growth. To
this end, the analysis uses the HCP to benchmark human
capital development in Azerbaijan against its international
peers using the Human Capital Index (HCI). The report
supplements the HCP with additional analysis assessing key
challenges and constraints in the areas that are
instrumental for human capital development, and provides
pathways for targeted catalytic interventions aimed at
yielding positive growth in human capital development in the country.
