This paper explores the significance of human capital in enhancing export performance in emerging economies. It focuses on key challenges in the areas of education and healthcare, as well as the effects of migration and social inequality on labor force development. A comparative analysis, drawing on data from China, India, Russia, and Brazil, demonstrates that investment in human capital is a critical factor in transitioning from a resource-based economy to one centered on the export of highly processed goods and services. The paper concludes by offering recommendations for developing a sustainable export strategy grounded in human development.
