The 2021 World Happiness Report just arrived.
As Kira M. Newman reports, “The secret ingredient? Our trust in each other seems to have been crucial in weathering this crisis, both as individuals and as societies.”
She notes that the report “might seem like a misnomer given all the anxiety, grief, and general unhappiness that we experienced last year. But their survey told a surprising story, one of ‘almost astonishing resilience.’”
People were interviewed in nearly 100 countries.
Find out how they responded to specific questions, and what the researcher’s other conclusions were here.
