The 2026 Global Social Progress Index, covering 171 countries, presents a picture of global stagnation rather than broad-based improvement.

The world is becoming a better place. There's excellent progress in meeting people's basic needs and improving wellbeing through better health & education. Sadly, progress on human rights & political engagement has stalled, but life today is better than any previous century. 🌍🎉

Happy Independence Day to #EquatorialGuinea Alas, 🇬🇶 is one of the least effective countries in the world at turning its wealth into wellbeing: its GDP per capita is higher than South Africa and social progress is > 20 points lower.

“The Youth Progress Index uses global data and is based on the methodology of the Social Progress Index. It enables public authorities and civil society organisations to systematically identify and prioritise the most pressing needs of young people, remove barriers to their wellbeing, and provide the resources needed to shape a fairer society for young people. Overall, the Youth Progress Index is a tool for evidence-based policy making, and advocacy, supporting youth rights mainstreaming.” @Youth_Forum youthprogressindex.org/metho…
