International Happiness Index

The International Happiness Index is a ranking that measures how satisfied and happy people feel in different countries. It considers factors like income, health, social support, freedom, trust, and good governance to assess overall well-being. Organizations like the United Nations produce these reports to understand what contributes to a high quality of life worldwide. The index helps identify areas where countries excel or need improvement, guiding policies aimed at increasing happiness and life satisfaction for their citizens. It emphasizes that happiness is a key goal beyond just economic growth.
