Human Capital Project

Welcome to the Human Capital Project (HCP), a global effort to accelerate more and better investments in people for greater equity and economic growth. In a post-COVID-19 pandemic world, it's even more important to understand why countries should invest in human capital (HC) and protect hard-won gains from being eroded. Find out why the World Bank, countries, and partners are coming together to close the massive HC gap in the world. Check out the Human Capital Network Fact Sheet, updated 2020 Human Capital Index, our videos, visualizations, frequently-asked-questions, and more.
