Hola

No estoy segura de si puedo traducir este término por "tema recurrente" o existe una manera más natural de decirlo en castellano. Aparece en este contexto.

The huge differences in human development across and within countries have been a recurring theme of the Human Development Report (HDR) since it was first published in 1990.

Muchas gracias por su ayuda
