@JonCliftonDC @Gallup 2/20 - What is wellbeing?

Since 2011, @ONS has used the #ONS4 questions to track 3 aspects of wellbeing:

Evaluative - overall satisfaction with life
Eudaimonic - meaning & purpose
Affective - positive & negative emotions

3/20 - Research on wellbeing is growing exponentially

Today's chart is from 'Can We Be Happier?' by @RichardLayard

#AddingLifeToYears #MIPAA20Rome
Ministers from the host of #MIPAA20Rome, Italy, are now speaking on the challenges but also the opportunities of population ageing.

We are on average living longer than ever before. The @UNDecadeAgeing is our opportunity to live these extra years with health & well-being.
@dienekeita (@UNFPA) provides a strong message: we must do for older people now what we want for ourselves when we are older.

#MIPAA, #MIPAA20Rome, and the @UNDecadeAgeing all show there is political will to improve the lives of older people. That will must be backed by action.
