PRESENTATION OF HUMAN

DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2004

 

Launching ceremony of the Human Development Report 2004 "Cultural Liberty in Today's Diverse World" and Macedonia's National Human Development Report 2004 "Decentralization for Human Development," will be held on Thursday.

 

In our complex world, more than two thirds of all countries contain minority groups that make up over ten percent of the population. Nearly a billion people belong to groups subjected to some form of exclusion.

 

Managing diversity has become a matter of political urgency and the 2004 Human Development Report provides new ways of looking at these issues, with meaningful examples of policy approaches in many different countries around the world.

 

Cultural freedom has become indispensable: the authors argue that the costs of ignoring identity politics will be far greater than the costs of accepting and managing diversity in an era of increasing global mobility and democracy. The HDR also features its annual comprehensive ranking of countries according to their human development level.

 

The National Human Development report focuses mainly on local development in order to add the human development perspective to the current discussions on decentralization in Macedonia. Concentrating on local development and good governance, this report is a step forward in comparison with previous reports on human development in Macedonia.
