Education and Human Capital | People as Resource – Class 9 Economics || part-3

Education plays a central role in transforming population into a valuable economic resource. In this video, we continue Chapter 2 of Class 9 Economics – People as Resource and explain how education improves human capital, productivity, and long-term economic growth. The concept of Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) is explained to show how access to education has expanded in India. The video discusses India’s progress in education, targets under planning periods, and comparison with global averages. It also explains how vocationalisation, use of information technology, and curriculum reforms contribute to skill development. We examine how education increases national income, cultural richness, and efficiency of governance. Special focus is given to government initiatives such as Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas, Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, mid-day meal scheme, bridge courses, and back-to-school programs aimed at universal education for children aged 6–14 years. The video also explains historical inequalities in education, especially for women, unpaid household work, lack of social security, maternity benefits, and childcare facilities, and how these factors affect national income and workforce participation. Finally, the concept of Quality of Population is explained by linking literacy, health, and skills to economic development. This video builds a strong conceptual foundation for students preparing for school exams as well as competitive examinations.
