Where does Zimbabwe rank based on the human capital the average child can expect to achieve?
The World Bank’s Human Capital Index measures “the amount of human capital that a child born today can expect to attain by age 18”. It gives a score between zero and one where one means full health and education potential. The index is designed to show how improvements in education and health outcomes today can shape the productivity of future workers.
In 2020 Zimbabwe scored 0.47.
Unlike previous reports, the 2020 update does not rank the 174 countries with an HCI score for reasons explained here.
