Understanding Happiness Through Data

Happymeter: Decoding Happiness is an interactive data visualization designed to support a structured understanding of global well-being. It brings together internationally recognized happiness indicators and presents them in a clear, interpretable visual format.

 

The visualizer exists to help users move beyond rankings alone and examine how different social, economic, and institutional factors contribute to happiness outcomes across countries. By translating complex datasets into visual patterns, it supports comparison, interpretation, and informed reflection.

What You Can Explore With the Visualizer

The visualizer supports several complementary perspectives on global happiness.

Compare Overall Happiness Across Countries

Explore country rankings based on aggregated happiness scores derived from multi-year averages. This view helps place individual countries in a broader global context.

Examine Key Drivers of Happiness

Review how specific factors such as GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, generosity, freedom, and perceptions of corruption contribute to national happiness scores.

Explore Geographic Patterns and Differences

Use a map-based view to observe regional trends and contrasts, highlighting where countries perform strongly or face challenges across different happiness dimensions.

About the Visual Approach

The Happymeter is based on data from the World Happiness Report 2023, using country-level scores calculated as three-year averages covering the period from 2020 to 2022. The visual structure is designed to reduce complexity while preserving methodological integrity, allowing users to switch between aggregate scores, individual metrics, and geographic perspectives.

How do different factors shape happiness outcomes?

Explore the data to see how social, economic, and institutional variables interact and differ across countries and regions.
