abstract   bibtex   
It should be recognised that building new measures of wellbeing and progress may require several iterations, as an initial set of indicators may need further development and refining. This chapter mentions several frameworks that have been proposed to measure the progress of societies. The point is simply that there are potentially useful frameworks that seek to capture the definition and scope of national wellbeing. They provide potential starting points. However, the framework that is most suitable for a given locality, country or group of countries should be determined through a process of deciding and meeting user requirements, which is explored in the chapter. For the wellbeing conceptual framework that the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) actually adopted, individual wellbeing is defined through eight quality-of-life domains and three domains for material conditions.
