Foreword -- 1. Building human capital -- 2. The record so far and the priorities ahead -- 3. Next steps -- Bibliography.
The key words in today ' s development economics are human capital. More and more emphasis is being placed on investments in education, health, and nutrition as a means of bettering the lives of people in developing countries. There is now enough theoretical and empirical evidence to indicate that both public and private investments in people contribute significantly to economic growth and the alleviation of poverty. This report examines past advances and current problems in this area of investment and presents the strategies most likely to reduce those problems. It also explains how the World Bank helps countries build human capital.
