Indonesia's HDI Rises to 76.59 in 2026, Bali and East Kalimantan Enter the Very High Category
Published
Statistics Indonesia (BPS) recorded that Indonesia's Human Development Index (HDI) in 2026 rose by 0.69 points, reaching 76.59. In the previous year, the national HDI figure was recorded at 75.90. This increase indicates progress in human development in Indonesia.
The HDI is a measure used to assess the quality of human development in a region. The index is calculated from three main aspects: health, as seen from life expectancy at birth; education, as seen from mean years of schooling and expected years of schooling; and a decent standard of living, as seen from per capita expenditure. The higher the HDI value, the better the quality of life of the population in that region.
In the data, two provinces, Bali and East Kalimantan, fall into the very high HDI category. This category shows that both provinces have achieved relatively good human development outcomes compared with other regions in Indonesia. This news is important information for the public to monitor the development of quality of life across various regions.
Overall, the national HDI increase in 2026 is a positive note for development in Indonesia. The public can follow official data from BPS to see the detailed HDI for each province and district/city.
