This lecture explores alternatives to GDP, focusing on the Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI) and the Human Development Index (HDI). It discusses how GPI accounts for environmental costs and income inequality, while HDI measures well-being through health, education, and income. The calculation methods and trends in HDI values across different country groupings are also analyzed.
