A Behavioural Approach towards Human Development: An Insight into the World Development Report 2015.

Rahul Kundal

Abstract :

A behavioural approach towards human development leads to a better and clear understanding of the core process of human development. Human development encircles itself within the boundaries of human behaviour. The human behaviour, as a matter of fact, is influenced by various factors such as decision making, economic development, poverty and early childhood development (ECD) et cetera. These factors are, in response, affected by the process of human development. The present paper seeks to deal with the two-way relationship that exists between human development and various factors mentioned above. It envisages learning the impacts of these factors affecting human development through an influential and well established behavioural approach. The paper has tried to access an insight into the World Development Report (WDR) 2015.
