The research proposal aims to fill a gap observed in conventional economic development indices: although these indices capture the economic and social dimensions, their composition only partially assesses the characteristics related to the dimensions of human development. Based on the problem identified, the aim of this project is to analyse the level of recent human development in Brazilian municipalities, incorporating the economic, social, environmental, territorial and spatial dimensions, by developing new indices capable of being used in intra- and inter-regional analyses. To this end, this project is descriptive-deductive in nature and its method is based on an experimental-explanatory basis. To produce the expected results, the following methods will be used: multivariate analysis, Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA) and spatial econometrics.
