The term "Global South" refers to developing countries, least developed countries, underdeveloped countries, lowincome economies, or thirdworld countries that have fallen out of favor. SouthSouth cooperation (SSC) has expanded in order to "challenge the North's political and economic dominance," and focused SSC activities have been renewed. The main objective is to develop mechanisms to promote the participation of people experiencing poverty and social exclusion in policy development and implementation. The existing literature provides more attention on socioeconomic exclusion in global south nation as characterized as developing nation. The Human Development Index (HDI) is a composite measure of a country's average achievements in three basic aspects of human development: health, knowledge, and standard of living. The Financial inclusion considered as economic inclusion is an enabler for the seventh of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals, and the World Bank Group considers it a key enabler to reduce extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity. This study has made an attempts to measure financial inclusion using a cross country data set from Financial Access Survey (FAS) and the index of financial inclusion (IFI) developed by Sarma (2012). Then it presents an empirical analysis of the relationship between financial inclusion and human development across countries in global south. Thererfore the present study focused on the socioeconomic inclusion with the help of Human development index and financial inclusion index for the year 2022. This article investigates the relationship between financial inclusion and human development index positions in 138 countries throughout the global south. The purpose of this study is to investigate the nexus between financial inclusion and human development for global south nations and analyse the relation between financial inclusion and human development. The study examines the effect of IFI on the human development index (HDI) at the aggregate level.
