Social Progress Index #socialprogress32
DEFINING PEER COUNTRIES
• We define a country’s economic peers as the 15 countries closest in
GDP PPP per capita.
• Once the peer group is defined, a country’s performance is
compared to the median performance of countries within the peer
cohort.
• If a country’s indicator score is greater than (or less than) the
average absolute deviation from the median of the comparator
group, it is considered a strength (or weakness). Scores within one
average absolute deviation are considered neither strengths nor
weaknesses (neutral) within the cohort.

Social Progress Index #socialprogress33
Under-performing Lower than neutral Neutral Higher than neutral Over-performing
Strengths and weaknesses are relative to 15 countries of similar GDP per capita: Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Ireland, Netherlands, Austria, Sweden,
Germany, Denmark, Australia, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Belgium, Iceland, Finland, Norway
