Human Capital consists of people's health, knowledge, skills and motivation. All these things are needed for productive work.

• Individuals are adept at relationships and social participation, and throughout life set and achieve high personal standards of their development and learning
• There is access to varied and satisfying opportunities for work, personal creativity, and recreation
