How Did Namibia Do On The Last World Happiness Report?

Namibians are known to be friendly people. It’s one of the things that tourists constantly pick up and comment on, yes?

But what about happiness. Do you think we feature on the World Happiness Report? We do, we just didn’t score that well in the last report.

So, the world happiness report gets compiled by the UN, and you guessed it. It ranks countries by their resident’s happiness!

Data is primarily from the Gallup World Poll and is based on respondent ratings of their own lives. The Gallup World Poll questionnaire measures 14 areas within its core questions, like business & economic, citizen engagement, communications & technology, education & families, and the list goes on.

And, according to the last report, which is published on www.worldhappiness.report , we came in at 105th place. Out of 137 countries. South Africa, came in at number 85.

I think we can do much better than 105th place!!

What do you think?
