What Works Wellbeing
Measuring wellbeing inequalities and progress in reducing them
| This week has seen the publication of the World Happiness Report and the launch of the Health Equals campaign, bringing inequalities to the forefront of national and global conversations. Income and health inequalities have well-established measurement and evaluation approaches. Could we reach a similar consensus for subjective wellbeing? Today’s blog introduces our latest discussion paper on measuring wellbeing inequality, and explores four possible approaches to measurement. |
