The indicators: an overview | Measuring well-being | Learn | National Accounts of Well-being The National Accounts of Well-being indicators on this website represent a working model of measures which governments can use to monitor the well-being of their citizens. The indicators have been constructed by nef, using data from the 2006-2007 European Social Survey . This is the most comprehensive and detailed international survey of well-being ever undertaken. The resulting survey dataset was used to develop an indicator set around two headline measures of personal well-being and social well-being : the two crucial aspects of how people experience their lives. As the diagram shows, each headline indicator is broken down into component indicators (and in places also subcomponent indicators) which reflect the different aspects which together comprise experienced well-being. The seven main components of personal and social well-being are also the elements used to create national Well-being Profiles (with emotional well-being split into its subcomponents).

EmpoweredBy Community Funded Impact Funds Overcome Doubts, Raise Money September 19, 2012 • Leila B. Boulton By Leila B. For all the recent hoopla about impact investing, there appears to be some resistance to investing in impact funds. For starters, impact investing--which is about making a positive social or environmental difference while earning a profit--takes patience. Fenwick-Smith spoke at the inaugural Social Impact Fund Showcase, where five innovative Colorado-based funds gave their best elevator pitches to 22 accredited investors. Perceived Risks And Misimpressions Fenwick-Smith told the audience that potential investors in his fund often have a number of inaccurate impressions such as that impact investing necessarily provides lower returns, that all green technologies are high risk and capital intensive, and that Colorado is "too small to matter." One of the fund's portfolio companies was selected to provide the information technology backbone for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
