The HDI represents a push for a broader definition of well-being and provides a composite measure of three basic dimensions of human development: health, education and income. Between 1980 and 2010 Finland's HDI rose by 0.5% annually from 0.745 to 0.871 today, which gives the country a rank of 16 out of 169 countries with comparable data. The HDI of OECD as a region increased from 0.723 in 1980 to 0.853 today, placing Finland above the regional average. The HDI trends tell an important story both at the national and regional level and highlight the very large gaps in well-being and life chances that continue to divide our interconnected world. 8) Sector wise contribution to GDP:
