Projet PIBien-être

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The "Projet PIBien-être" is the first official initiative for measuring well-being and quality of life in Luxembourg.

In 2013, a joint commission led by the Conseil économique et social, the Conseil supérieur pour un développement durable and the Observatoire de la Compétitivité introduced a set of indicators measuring the quality of life in Luxembourg. The conclusions of the commission were summarised in a document titled "Projet PIBien-être", which identified 64 indicators belonging to 11 different domains to assess quality of life in Luxembourg.[1]

In 2015, within the "Projet PIBien-être", STATEC (National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg) presented a preliminary analysis of the "Luxembourgish Index of Well-being" (LIW), a first proposal of synthetic indicator measuring the quality of life in Luxembourg.[1] The presentation entitled "Preliminary Assessment of Quality of Life in Luxembourg" was delivered by Marcin Piekałkiewicz on 16 December 2015.[2]

The results were published by STATEC in 2016 in "Rapport travail et cohésion sociale".[3]

Quality of life domains

[edit]

The quality of life domains identified in the "Projet PIBien-être" are as follows:[3]

  1. Income and wealth;
  2. Occupation;
  3. Housing;
  4. Health;
  5. Private and working life balance;
  6. Education and skills;
  7. Social relationships;
  8. Governance;
  9. Environment;
  10. Safety and physical integrity;
  11. Subjective well-being.

In total the "Projet PIBien-être" includes 63 indicators calculated based on international surveys – e.g. European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC), European Union Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS), European Value Study (EVS), Eurobarometer – as well as administrative data available at STATEC and in other Luxembourgish institutes, such as the IGSS (L'Inspection générale de la sécurité sociale).
