Table 2 is based on consistent indicators, methodology and time-series data and, thus, shows real changes in values and ranks over time, reflecting the actual progress countries have made.

They just reproduce content from wire services i.e., news agencies after making simple modifications. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> The culture of breaking news without verification can lead to misreporting. Experts are not consulted while preparing a news report or breaking news. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Lapses at the end of editor, which includes missing to cross-check facts, inadequate domain expertise, etc. can cause misreporting.</p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Training of journalists is not given enough attention by the media organisations. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Research agencies responsible for the release of reports should provide a separate easy explainer well in advance of media reporting. Most of the time, this is not done. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Research agencies responsible for the release of reports should organise seminar or symposium for those journalists who are assigned to cover such special reports and/or events. Online dissemination of press releases cannot clear the doubts of most journalists. Besides, physical training and capacity building workshops too can be arranged for journalists who cover such reports. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><br /> <strong><em>References:</em></strong></p> <p style="text-align:justify">Human Development Report 2021-22: Uncertain times, unsettled lives -- Shaping our future in a transforming world, produced by United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), released in September 2022, please click <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/HDR%202021-22%20Full%20Report.pdf" title="/upload/files/HDR%202021-22%20Full%20Report.pdf">here</a>, <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/HDR21-22_Press%20Release%20English.pdf" title="/upload/files/HDR21-22_Press%20Release%20English.pdf">here</a>, <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/India%20Specific%20country%20data%20_%20Human%20Development%20Report%202021-22.pdf" title="/upload/files/India%20Specific%20country%20data%20_%20Human%20Development%20Report%202021-22.pdf">here</a>, <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/Technical%20notes%20hdr2021-22_technical_notes.pdf" title="/upload/files/Technical%20notes%20hdr2021-22_technical_notes.pdf">here</a> and <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/Press%20Release%20HDR%2021-22%20on%20India.pdf" title="/upload/files/Press%20Release%20HDR%2021-22%20on%20India.pdf">here</a> to access</p> <p style="text-align:justify">Human Development Report 2020: The next frontier -- Human development and the Anthropocene, produced by United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), released in December 2020, please click <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/hdr2020.pdf" title="/upload/files/hdr2020.pdf">here</a>, <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/Briefing%20note%20for%20India%20on%20the%20HDR%202020.pdf" title="/upload/files/Briefing%20note%20for%20India%20on%20the%20HDR%202020.pdf">here</a>, <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/hdr2020_technical_notes.pdf" title="/upload/files/hdr2020_technical_notes.pdf">here</a>, and <a href="https://im4change.org/upload/files/2020_global_press_release_en.pdf" title="/upload/files/2020_global_press_release_en.pdf">here</a> to access</p> <p style="text-align:justify"> </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>Image Courtesy: <a href="http://im4change.org/upload/files/HDR%202021-22%20Full%20Report.pdf">Human Development Report 2021-22</a></strong></p> ', 'credit_writer' => '', 'article_img' => 'Image HDR 2021-22 coverage page.png', 'article_img_thumb' => 'Image HDR 2021-22 coverage page.png', 'status' => (int) 1, 'show_on_home' => (int) 1, 'lang' => 'EN', 'category_id' => (int) 4, 'tag_keyword' => '', 'seo_url' => 'global-human-development-report-2021-22-hdr-methdology-hdi-human-development-index-undp-rank-score-value', 'meta_title' => '', 'meta_keywords' => '', 'meta_description' => '', 'noindex' => (int) 1, 'publish_date' => object(Cake\I18n\FrozenDate) {}, 'most_visit_section_id' => null, 'article_big_img' => null, 'liveid' => null, 'created' => object(Cake\I18n\FrozenTime) {}, 'modified' => object(Cake\I18n\FrozenTime) {}, 'edate' => '', 'category' => object(App\Model\Entity\Category) {}, '[new]' => false, '[accessible]' => [ '*' => true, 'id' => false ], '[dirty]' => [], '[original]' => [], '[virtual]' => [], '[hasErrors]' => false, '[errors]' => [], '[invalid]' => [], '[repository]' => 'Articles' } $imgtag = false $imgURL = '#' $titleText = 'A layperson's guide to understanding the global Human Development Report 2021/22' $descText = 'It is hard for the media to ignore the findings of global Human Development Report (HDR) whenever a newer and updated version is released.

They just reproduce content from wire services i.e., news agencies after making simple modifications. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> The culture of breaking news without verification can lead to misreporting. Experts are not consulted while preparing a news report or breaking news. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Lapses at the end of editor, which includes missing to cross-check facts, inadequate domain expertise, etc. can cause misreporting.</p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Training of journalists is not given enough attention by the media organisations. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Research agencies responsible for the release of reports should provide a separate easy explainer well in advance of media reporting. Most of the time, this is not done. </p> <p style="text-align:justify"><strong>-</strong> Research agencies responsible for the release of reports should organise seminar or symposium for those journalists who are assigned to cover such special reports and/or events. Online dissemination of press releases cannot clear the doubts of most journalists.
