high- , middle-and low-income countries: 1.1  \n*uses a country’s Gross National Income (GNI) per capita  \n\n| Economic Social Environmental Health status |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| High income:\u003Cbr>e.g Australia, Canada, Greece | • often have a\u003Cbr>wide range of industries\u003Cbr>including mining, processing, manufacturing, education\u003Cbr>• generally have\u003Cbr>access to infrastructure\u003Cbr>such as roads, ports, airports which allow for global trade | • often experience\u003Cbr>gender equality\u003Cbr>providing opportunity and choice for education, employment, recreation\u003Cbr>• low birth rates due to access to contraception, education and career choices | • have access toa quality food supply\u003Cbr>• developed infrastructure such as roads, piped water, sewerage | • low mortality rates\u003Cbr>• longer life expectancy\u003Cbr>• established healthcare/education |\n| Upper middle income:\u003Cbr>e.g China, Cuba, Fiji | | | | |\n| Lower middle income:\u003Cbr>e.g Cambodia, India, Pakistan | • significant proportion of population living in poverty\u003Cbr>• often have a\u003Cbr>limited range of industries\u003Cbr>usually centred around farming and primary production | • high birthrates/high rate population growth (related to access to contraception)\u003Cbr>• limited opportunity for education and career options | • poor air quality\u003Cbr>• poor access to safe water and sanitation | • high material mortality—poor access to maternal health services\u003Cbr>• much higher burden of disease (than high income) especially due to communicable disease |\n\n\n| Economic Social Environmental Health status |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Low income:\u003Cbr>e.g Mali, Nepal, Uganda | • large proportion of population living in poverty\u003Cbr>• often have a\u003Cbr>limited range of industries\u003Cbr>usually centered around farming and primary production\u003Cbr>• poor infrastructure which limits global trade | • often experience\u003Cbr>gender inequality such as women having limited opportunity for education/work\u003Cbr>• often have a lack of access to technology which impactson the ability of citizens to gain an education | • often lack food security (often lack financial resources)\u003Cbr>• often lack\u003Cbr>adequate housing (poor ventilation, lack of\u003Cbr>heating/cooling, running water, cooking facilities) | • high U5MR—poor health literacy formothers and availability of maternal health service\u003Cbr>• high mortality rates—poor access toimmunisationsor clean water/sanitation |\n\nFactors:  \n• sanitation—open defecation increases spread of water bone disease such as cholera  \n*also keeps girls from attending school  \n• safe water—strain on water supply can lead to spread of water borne disease such as diarrhoea  \n• poverty—malnourishment impairs immune function, increases risk of death due to disease such as HIV, poor access to healthcare and education  \n• inequality and discrimination (minority groups such as homosexuals, transgender people or minority religious groups)—higher rates of depression/anxiety, higher rates of death due to suicide  \n• genital mutilation of women—can cause excessive bleeding, infections  \n• marketing of tobacco, alcohol and processed foods—target low/middle income countries due to poor public policy and education  \nHUMAN DEVELOPMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY 1.2  \nHuman Development:  \nCreating an environment in which people can develop to their full potential and lead productive, creative lives in accord to their needs and interests. It is about expanding people’s choices and enhancing capabilities, having access to knowledge, health and a decent standard of living, and participating in the life of their community and decisions affecting their lives.  \nBasically—how well people can live and thrive in a country  \nCapabilities to Assist Human development:  \n• have access to knowledge  \n• lead long and healthy lives  \n","cbCaivwqXtj5D0Oc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivwqXtj5D0Oc","pdf",1141347,32,"English","# Characteristics of income groups by country\n## High, upper middle, lower middle, and low income health status\n# Key factors affecting health and development\n## Sanitation and safe water\n## Poverty and inequality\n## Harmful practices and targeted marketing\n# Human development and sustainability\n## Capabilities\n## Human Development Index (HDI)\n### Dimensions and indicators\n### Measurements, advantages, and limitations\n## Sustainability concepts","[{\"question\":\"How do the notes define high-, upper middle-, lower middle-, and low-income countries?\",\"answer\":\"They use Gross National Income (GNI) per capita to categorize countries and compare economic, social, environmental factors, and health status across income groups.\"},{\"question\":\"What factors are listed as major influences on health outcomes?\",\"answer\":\"The notes highlight sanitation and safe water, poverty, inequality and discrimination, genital mutilation of women, and marketing of tobacco, alcohol, and processed foods as key influences on health and development.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the Human Development Index (HDI) and what does it measure?\",\"answer\":\"HDI is a United Nations tool that ranks countries using a single statistic based on health, education, and living standards, supported by indicators such as life expectancy, schooling, and gross national income per capita.\"}]","UNIT 4 - GLOBAL HEALTH & HUMAN DEVELOPMENT - SUMMARY NOTES FOR THE VCAA EXAMS | PDF",1789909290,81]
