Vietnam ranks 65th in world happiness report

Vietnam ranks 65th out of 137 countries and territories in the 2020-2022 period as per the World Happiness Report 2023, up 12 places from the 2022 Report.

The report was released on March 20, which the United Nations has designated as the International Day of Happiness since 2013.

Country rankings this year are based on life evaluations in 2020, 2021, and 2022, so all of the observations are drawn from years of high infection and deaths from COVID-19.

The factors that affect a country’s ranking include GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom to make life choices, generosity, and perception of corruption.
