A framework to measure the progress of societies - read full text version

There are many initiatives to develop frameworks for progress and well-being at the community, national and international levels. A bottom-up approach is important in developing such a framework to ensure that it is relevant for the society whose progress it purports to measure. We recognise that there are elements of subjectivity in evaluations of progress, and that unanimity is difficult to reach. But the proposed Global Project framework can provide a common starting point for the various initiatives, as it is broad enough to be adaptable to different cultures and scopes.

The following topics are based on the taxonomy of Progress proposed by the Global Project on Measuring the Progress of Societies and up for debate. Please feel free to contribute to this page and help the wikiprogress community to further its study of progress related indicators and the dimensions therein.
