We are delighted to announce the release of the 2021 Social Progress Index.
As we focus on an inclusive, resilient, and sustainable recovery, a common agreement on the truth of a society's successes and failures has never been more important. We don't yet know the true social cost of the pandemic, from health to education, to food insecurity, and beyond, we expect the impact will not be minimal. As billions of dollars are being poured into recovery efforts we need to have a good understanding of where we need investment and policies that can make the most positive impact.
This year's Social Progress Index reveals how countries across the world are doing in light of the many challenges we all face. Our rich publicly available data set allows you to look at which countries are doing better than others and in what areas, so we can figure out what is working and where we need to focus our efforts. Explore the 2021 global index today to learn the strengths and vulnerabilities of 168 countries!
For the first time, we have released a special report that examines the complex relationship between social progress, development, and greenhouse gas emissions. As world leaders gather for COP26, many across the world hold their collective breath hoping that accountability and action taken and pledged, will be strong enough to avoid catastrophic climate calamity. In this report, we find that social progress does not have to come at the cost of the planet. Our report provides a compelling data-driven story about what is achievable.
Join us at 10 am ET on November 2nd, for a special live stream with our CEO Michael Green, as he shares the latest findings from the index and the report. Watch here.
Thanks to all of our partners and donors, we could not do this without their support. To help keep our work alive, please donate today.
Best wishes,
The Social Progress Imperative Team
