Over to you ……
• Carry out research to produce a comparative display
showing the disparities between the top and bottom
country of the HDI index.
• You should include reasons why each country finds
itself at the two oppostite ends of the scale.
• Don’t forget to include key terms that we have learnt
about e.g. life expectancy, birth rates, death rates,
literacy rates, AIDS infection rates, GDP and the HDI
value of Sierra Leone and Norway.
• Include maps to show locations within the continent
of Africa and Europe and photos to show different
