Social Monitor, Welfare and Well-being in Dutch Society,1999-2018

The Social Monitor is a collection of indicators that together paint a picture of the well-being and prosperity of the Dutch population. These data relate to several aspects of the lives of Dutch people, divided into nine themes, and how they change over time. In the format and presentation of this data, we align with the development of the focus area ‘quality of life’ in the Report of the Commission on the Measurement of Economic Performance and Social Progress. This Stiglitz report was written by a committee led by Nobel laureates Joseph Stiglitz and Amartya Sen and the economist Jean-Paul Fitousi. The nine different themes are: 1. Demographic and economic context 2. Material standard of living 3. Economic risks 4. Training and occupation 5. Health & Health 6. Social participation and trust 7. Social connections and relationships 8. Safety & Safety 9. Environment and living environment For each of these nine themes, some key figures relevant to prosperity and well-being have been selected from pre-existing Statline tables. Where possible, a distinction is made according to gender. In addition, CBS publishes a large number of other data on each of these nine themes on Statline. Data available: from 1999 to 2018. Changes as of 26 February 2019: None, this table has been discontinued. When are new figures coming? No longer applicable.
