Developing countries face myriad of challenges; the height of which is the wanton poverty that is associated with them. But, many countries such as the Asian Tigers have shown that with targeted, appropriate and adequate investment in human resource development through education, a society may be easily transformed from underdevelopment and poverty to prosperity and higher standard of living.
With Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the international community committed for the first time as a whole to an expanded vision of poverty reduction and pro-poor growth, one that vigorously places human development at the center of social and economic progress in all countries. The MDGs also recognized the importance of creating a global; partnership for change. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), launched in 2015 over another 15 years long period, aimed at building on the efforts of the MDGs in the same perspective. That ending poverty must go hand in hand with strategies that build economic growth and at the same time addresses a range of social needs including education, health, social protection and creation of job opportunities.
Barriers and Opportunities at the Base of the Pyramid - The Role of the Private Sector in Inclusive Development, Over the years, the state has been bearing the major responsibility for human resource development in many third world countries, just as developed countries benefitting of a welfare state. But this trend is changing. Since the beginning of the 21st century, private institutions and organizations have gradually started playing a major role in human resource development, in particular through their engagement in the education sector.
The goal of this research, therefore, is to demonstrate the role of private institutions in human resource development in developing countries and how such contribu-tions may be enhanced, the role of private institutions with regards to MDGs and SDGs, notably through strategic partnerships with public institutions and other private organizations.

Extract from the Book
1.1 Development and Human Resource Development
Development is the possession of the values and the abilities necessary to achieve personal goals and the motivation to select constructive and productive life purpose (Payne, Anthony 2013). On the other hand, human development is a theory that lies in the grounds of international developments (global level of development). Furthermore, the human development comprises the study of the human condition especially in the capability approach (a written structure that involves two standardizing claims (Oosterlaken 2015). Firstly, it claims that the freedom to obtain basic happiness and prosperity is important. Secondly, the capability approach claims that freedom to obtaining happiness and prosperity is based on human capabilities particularly their real chances to be what they will be proud of). Also, human development spreads the distribution of goods and services which are need by the underprivileged people with its main idea influenced by human decision. It is also true to believe that growth and strength to pursue different life goals and developing the human capabilities depends on strong and reliable human development strategies.
Notably, the terminology ‘human development' may be characterized as an enlargement of the human efficiencies, for instance, a variety of choices, an expansion of freedom, as well as enjoyment of human rights (Watson, Malcom 2015). Human development digs its root in the early economic theories and early philosophy as well. As Aristotle would confirm, ‘the good we are looking for cannot be found within wealth and money' further, he concluded by saying that wealth is merely practical within something else (Aristotle. 1963).
