On the day of International Day of Happiness (20 March), the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network released its tenth edition of the ‘World Happiness Report’.
For the sixth time in a row, Finland has been called the happiest country in the world.
Finland continues to occupy the top spot, for the sixth year in a row.
As with 2022, Denmark once again comes in at number two, followed by Iceland at number three.
Israel has gone up five points to bump Switzerland out of the number four spot. (Switzerland ranks number eight this year.) The Netherlands once again come in at number five.
The ranking of the countries is based on data from sources like the Gallup World Poll, leveraging six key factors: social support, income, health, freedom, generosity and absence of corruption.
On the other hand, war-torn Afghanistan tops the list of most unhappy countries.
