1 Development Indicators for CIRDAP And SAARC Countries 485 SECTION - 13: DEVELOPMENT INDICATORS FOR CIRDAP AND SAARC COUNTRIES The Centre for Integrated Rural Development for Asia and the Pacific (CIRDAP) and the South Asia s Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) are the regional inter-governmental institutions for promoting development in the member countries. These institutions have membership of 15 (Lao PDR, Indonesia, Iran, Vietnam, Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Fiji and Sri Lanka) and 8 countries (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Maldives and Bhutan) respectively. The countries that are common to these two institutions are Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. 13.1: This Table provides data on demographic indicators for CIRDAP and SAARC member countries for the year : Data on key health indicators in respect of CIRDAP and SAARC countries are presented in this Table. The data relate to 2011 and : Information on eleven selected indicators relating to education, technology and economic status is furnished for 2011 and : Data on key indicators for Work and Employment Indicators of CIRDAP and SAARC Countries are presented in the table. 13.5: This Table gives the region-wise poverty estimates (Poverty Line of 2011 PPP $1.90 a day) in the world for the years 1990, 1993, 1996, 1999, 2002, 2005, 2008, 2010 and 2013.

2 486 Rural Development Statistics Highlights l l l l l l Urbanisation is usually considered an indicator of development. The rates of urbanisation are low in several SAARC and CIRDAP member countries. The high share of children in total population in many of the countries is suggestive of high age-group wise dependency which may give rise to high incidence of poverty, ceteris paribus. The differences in the life expectancy across the member countries reflect the variations in the social and economic development levels of these countries. In many cases, the longevity levels are well below those in the Western World. Among the South Asian member countries, providing access to improved sanitation and higher percentage of underweight children are some of the critical challenges in the field of health and nutrition; the child malnutrition is an outcome of poverty. The low net enrolment ratio at secondary education level in the member countries is a matter of serious concern from HRD view-point. Inter-country variations in regard to technology indicators are still glaring though there has been progress in this regard in many countries over- time.
