Dear shybaby-ga;
Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting question.
Simply put, human development is the process of enlarging people?s
choices in all fields of human endeavor.

Dr. Mahbub ul Haq, who was at the forefront of human development
research, put it this way:
"The basic purpose of development is to enlarge people's choices. In
principle, these choices can be infinite and can change over time.
People often value achievements that do not show up at all, or not
immediately, in income or growth figures: greater access to knowledge,
better nutrition and health services, more secure livelihoods,
security against crime and physical violence, satisfying leisure
hours, political and cultural freedoms and sense of participation in
community activities. The objective of development is to create an
enabling environment for people to enjoy long, healthy and creative
lives."
