An "Unsettling" Development Slowdown in 2024
The Freeman
|June 04, 2025
Humanity recorded an unexpected and "unsettling" slowdown in development in 2024 as the global post-pandemic recovery began losing steam, well before President Donald Trump dramatically cut US international aid, the UN warned recently.
-
The world had rebounded from the shock of the Covid-19 pandemic by 2023, as measured by the UN's Human Development Index (HDI), which charts living standards, health and education. But that rebound appears to be losing momentum, according to the United Nations Development Programme's most recent annual report.
If that "unsettling" slowdown becomes the new normal, achieving levels of human development once hoped for by 2030 "could slip by decades making our world less secure, more divided, and more vulnerable to economic and ecological shocks," warned UNDP head Achim Steiner.
