Human Capital is the combination of the knowledge, skills, health, and resilience that people invest in and accumulate throughout their lives. By building these up, people can be more productive, flexible, and innovative. As the 2019 World Development Report ‘The Changing Nature of Work’ highlighted, markets are seeking workers with higher levels of human capital; this includes advanced cognitive skills such as complex problem-solving, socio-behavioral skills such as teamwork, and skill combinations that are predictive of adaptability such as reasoning and self-efficacy. Crucially, in the transition towards both a digital and green economy, human capital is important because there is now a higher premium on adaptability. The Human Capital Index (HCI) conveys the productivity of future workers, compared to a benchmark of complete education and full health. It measures the human capital that a child born today can expect to attain by age 18. The index is made up of five indicators: (i) survival, as measured by the under 5 mortality rates; (ii) the expected years of schooling; (iii) harmonized test scores as a measure of the quality of learning; (iv) health as indicated by the rate of stunting under 5, and (v) the adult survival rate (the fraction of 15-year-olds that will survive to age 60). These health and education indicators are combined to give an estimate of future worker productivity using rigorous macroeconomic evidence.
