Kehittyvästi

"Kehittyvästi" is a term used in the context of international development and economics to describe a country that is in the process of transitioning from a less developed state to a more developed one. This term is often used to differentiate these countries from those that are already developed or are in the early stages of development. Kehittyvästi countries typically exhibit a mix of characteristics, including lower levels of economic development, higher levels of poverty, and less advanced infrastructure compared to developed countries. However, they often show signs of progress, such as increasing GDP growth rates, improving education and healthcare systems, and greater integration into the global economy. The term is used to highlight the ongoing nature of development in these countries and to emphasize the need for continued support and investment to achieve sustainable development goals. It is important to note that the classification of a country as kehittyvästi can vary depending on the specific criteria and indices used, such as the Human Development Index (HDI) or the World Bank's classification.
