 The Gender Related Development Index (GDI)  Table J HDR 2009 [143 KB] is a composite index that measures human development in the same dimensions as the HDI while adjusting for gender inequality in those basic dimensions. Its coverage is limited to 155 countries and areas for which the HDI rank was recalculated. For a measure of gender inequality, one should refer to the difference between the HDI rank and the GDI rank presented in in the same table.
