| Description |
This indicator estimates the number of years a person is expected to live in good perceived health. It is based on mortality data combined with data on self-perceived health as reported in the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC). |
|---|---|
| Rationale |
The indicator is part of the EU Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) indicator set. It is used to monitor progress towards SDG 3 on good health and well-being and SDG 1 on no poverty as a multi-purpose indicator (MPI); which are embedded in the European Commission’s 2024-2029 Priorities under ‘Supporting people, strenghtening our societes and our social model’. |
| Content and progress |
Good health is not only of value to the individual as a major determinant of quality of life, well being and social participation, it is also a basic precondition for general economic growth. Monitoring SDG 3 in an EU context focuses on the topics of healthy lives, determinants of health, causes of death and health care. |
