Mumbai HDR 2009 is the
first-ever municipal HDR globally. The HDR is prepared by
AIILSG with support from UNDP, Ministry of Housing and Urban
Poverty Alleviation and Municipal Corporation of Greater
Mumbai.
UNDP had launched HDR process
with goal of putting people at the center of development.
Since 1995, in India, 20 state HDRs have been prepared and
many districts are also preparing HDRs.
Mumbai HDR has reviewed
population trends, economy, equity, slums, education, health,
gender and quality of life in the city. It also provides
options and way ahead. It has developed a human development
measure for various administrative wards of the city. This
would help the city government to take appropriate decisions
for wards needing special efforts.
The HDR will provide a
roadmap for Mumbai and other cities in India.
