EIU - Global Liveability Report 2023

The Global Liveability Index 2023 is a report published by the Economist Intelligence Unit that provides a ranking of 140 cities worldwide based on their quality of life. The ranking takes into account over 30 qualitative and quantitative factors across five categories: stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure. The report aims to assess which locations around the world provide the best or worst living conditions. The liveability rating quantifies the challenges that might be presented to an individual's lifestyle in any given location and allows for direct comparison between locations. The report also discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on living conditions in cities and how it has affected the overall liveability score. The pandemic has had a significant impact on the liveability of cities, with many cities experiencing a decline in their scores due to factors such as increased crime rates, reduced access to healthcare, and restrictions on social activities. Additionally, the report provides insights into economic and political developments worldwide, identifying opportunities, trends, and risks on a global and national scale. The Economist Intelligence Unit has over 70 years of experience and is ideally positioned to be a commentator, interpreter, and forecaster on the phenomenon of globalization as it gathers pace, enabling businesses, financial firms, educational institutions, and governments to plan effectively for uncertain futures.
