1 Measuring well-being and progress For many years, the OECD has been looking beyond the functioning of the economic system to consider the diverse experiences and living conditions of people and households. Measuring the well-being of people and the progress of societies is a key priority for the OECD, whose overarching mission is to promote Better Policies for Better Lives. Since the launch of the in 2011, various research projects and many national and international initiatives have demonstrated the strong global interest in indicators and analysis that go beyond GDP. This brochure presents the OECD Better Life Initiative and its related projects on measuring well-being. The ( focuses on developing statistics that can capture aspects of life that matter to people and that, taken together, help to shape the quality of their lives. Two important elements of this initiative are the How s Life? report and the Better Life Index. How s Life?, published every two years, provides a comprehensive picture of well-being in OECD countries and other major economies, by looking at people s material conditions and quality of life across the population. The Better Life Index is an interactive web-based tool that allows citizens to compare well-being across OECD countries and beyond. The also encompasses a range of research and methodological projects on measuring well-being. This includes developing measurement guidelines (e.g. on income, consumption and wealth; subjective well-being; trust; and the quality of the work environment), and building the evidence base on the distribution of well-being outcomes (e.g. income, wealth, and health inequalities). Measuring Progress of Societies, [ ] has become fundamental for development and policy-making in general. Improving the quality of our lives should be the ultimate target of public policies. Angel Gurría, OECD Secretary-General
2 Why measure well-being and progress? Understanding the issues Recent years have seen an increasing awareness that macro economic statistics, such as GDP do not provide policy-makers with a sufficiently detailed picture of the living conditions that ordinary people experience. While this awareness was already evident during the years of strong growth and good economic performance that characterised the early part of the 2000s, the financial and economic crisis has further amplified this sentiment because indicators like GDP alone cannot show the full human costs of the crisis. Developing statistics that can better reflect the wide range of factors that matter to people and their well-being is of crucial importance for the credibility and accountability of public policies and for the very functioning of democracy. What is progress? Progress is about improvements in the well-being of people and households. The OECD Framework for Measuring Well-Being and Progress (see illustration below) is based on the recommendations made in 2009 by the Commission on the Measurement of Economic Performance and Social Progress also known as the Stiglitz-Sen-Fitoussi Commission to which the OECD contributed significantly. It also reflects earlier OECD work and various national initiatives in the field. This framework is built around three distinct domains: material conditions, quality of life and sustainability. Each of these domains includes a number of relevant dimensions. While the well-being of each person can be described in terms of a number of separate outcomes, the assessment of conditions for society as a whole requires considering both population averages and inequalities, since there can be large differences in outcomes between groups within countries.

4 How s Life? How s Life? Measuring Well-Being ( a report released every two years, is prepared under the oversight of the OECD Committee on Statistics and Statistical Policy. It paints a comprehensive picture of well-being in OECD countries and other major economies, by looking at people s material conditions and quality of life in eleven dimensions, i.e. income and wealth; jobs and earnings; housing conditions; health status; work-life balance; education and skills; social connections; civic engagement and governance; environmental quality; personal security; and subjective well-being. The OECD Framework for analysing well-being and societal progress is shown on page 2. Since the first edition has been published in 2011, the report has had a significant influence on the ways in which well-being is measured across the world and on the public debate on what matters to citizens. The 2017 edition of How s Life? charts the promises and pitfalls for people s well-being in 35 OECD countries and 6 partner countries. It presents the latest evidence from 50 indicators, covering both current well-being outcomes and resources for future well-being, and including changes since During this period there have been signs of progress, but gains in some aspects of life have been offset by losses elsewhere. This fourth edition highlights the many faces of inequality, showing that gaps in people s achievements and opportunities extend right across the different dimensions of well-being. It exposes divisions according to age, gender, and education, and reveals pockets of inequality in all OECD countries. It also brings to light the many well-being disadvantages that migrants face in adapting to life abroad. Additionally, the report examines governance as seen from the citizen s perspective, revealing gaps between public institutions and the people they serve. Finally, it provides a country-by-country perspective, pinpointing strengths, challenges and changes in well-being over time in 41 country profiles. 4
