The Human Development Report (Website), published annually by the UNDP since 1990, assesses the performance of countries and ranks them using life expectancy at birth, adult literacy rate, per capita income, human resource development and basic needs such as freedom and dignity as indicators. Ghana, this year, moved five places up the Human Development Index from its 133rd position last year, to 129th. Norway is ranked first with Sierra Leone as the lowest at the 173rd position.
