Current well-being by education level

The How’s Life? database is the one-stop shop for the 80+ indicators of the OECD Well-being Dashboard, covering social, economic and environmental outcomes that matter most for people, the planet and future generations. It consists of six datasets: current well-being, current well-being vertical inequalities, current well-being by age, educational attainment, sex, and resources for future well-being. To learn more about the database, visit the database's definitions and metadata.




This dataflow covers: Current well-being by educational attainment.




The distribution of current well-being is taken into account by looking at three types of inequality: gaps between population groups by age, educational attainment and sex (horizontal inequalities); gaps between those at the top and those at the bottom of the achievement scale in each dimension (vertical inequalities); and deprivations (i.e. the share of the population falling below a given threshold of achievement).




Indicators are banded when sample size is below 1000 observations.
