How’s Life? is a statistical report that describes some of the essential aspects of life that shape people’s well-being in OECD and partner countries. It is based on a multi-dimensional framework covering 11 dimensions of current well-being (income and wealth, work and job quality, housing, health, knowledge and skills, environmental quality, work-life balance, social connections, civic engagement, safety and subjective well-being) and four different resources for future well-being (natural, human, economic and social capital). Each edition considers how people’s well-being is changing over time and how it is distributed among different population groups, while a range of thematic chapters provide an in-depth look at specific aspects of well-being.
