Well-being Information hub

Well-being Information hub

A Well-being Information Hub has been developed and is being maintained by the Central Statistics Office (CSO). It aims to report on the wellness of the nation and attempts to answer the essential question – how are we doing as a country, as communities and as individuals.

The content covers the broad range of life in Ireland – from education, to health, to work and many more facets of Irish life.

Across the 11 themes of well-being, which are drawn from an international framework developed by the OECD, the hub hopes to provide dynamic updates for the many indicators which comprise of the dimensions of well-being.

Statistics have been sourced from a broad range of sources, mainly from the CSO, but also sources across the government system.  

The domains include:

How we are doing

Subjective Well-being

Mental and Physical Health

Income and Wealth

Knowledge and Skills

Housing and Local Area

Environment, Climate and Biodiversity

Safety and Security

Work and Job Quality

Time Use

Community, Social Connections and Cultural Participation

These all offer a snap shot of well-being using statistical comparisons from a variety of data sources.
