The HPI puts current and future well-being at the heart of measurement. It frames the development of each country in the context of real environmental limits. In doing so it tells us what we instinctively know to be true â that progress is not just about wealth.he HPI is a clear and meaningful barometer of how well a nation is doing. This is its key value. But although the HPI measures a lot, it does not measure everything. Countries that do well on the HPI suffer many problems and many high-ranking countries are tainted by important human rights issues.
