The report was released in advance of UN World Happiness Day on March 20. For the first time it gave a special role to the measurement and consequences of inequality in the distribution of well-being among countries and regions.

The report aims to “survey the scientific underpinnings of measuring and understanding subjective well-being”, and in its 4th edition, ranked 157 countries by happiness levels using factors such as healthy years of life expectancy and GDP – gross domestic product per capita.
