As the development cable model (right) shows, development is a multi-faceted process
At its core is economic development, but to achieve real progress social, political, environmental and personal development is also needed. Recognising the complex nature of development is why development is often measured using an index, which combines a range of data Indices are considered more accurate than single data points such as GDP per capita. Physical Quality of Life Index (PQLI) Life expectancy + Literacy rate + Infant Mortality rate The Human Development Index (HDI) Life expectancy at birth + Literacy rate + Enrolment rate + GDP per capita PPP

Related also to women and equality: Having to defecate openly infringes on human safety and dignity. Women and girls risk rape and abuse as they wait until night falls because they lack of access to a toilet that offers privacy. Where toilets do exist, additional inequalities present in usability. Toilets generally remain inadequate for populations with special needs, such as the disabled and elderly, and women and girls requiring facilities to manage menstrual hygiene. Without accessible toilets for these populations, they remain excluded from opportunities to attend school and gain employment.
