- Abstract
Amid the start of the twenty first century, the world has been confronted with a new set of challenges that have greater impact on global development. Since 1990, annual Human Development Reports (HDR) have explored world challenges including poverty, gender, democracy, human rights, cultural liberty, globalization, water scarcity, climate change, and human mobility and development. In the recent HRD literature, many authors have argued that HRD has been unable to face the emerging challenges of the world. This paper reviewed HRD literature to critically discuss about the capability of HRD and its potentials to address the new development challenges.
