Statistical analysis was used to determine the happiest countries by the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network. The report ranks 146 countries according to their overall well-being, from the happiest to the most unhappy.
Professor Christopher Barrington-Leigh of McGill University in Quebec also contributed to the report as a researcher, saying in a statement that the World Happiness Report is changing the conversation about progress and well-being. He also said the report outlines how people in these countries feel about their quality of life.
In the 10th edition of the report, Mauritius is the happiest country in Africa, with a perfect score of 6,071. Unfortunately, the 2021 pandemic has retreated Mauritius from a High-Income to an Upper-Middle-Income country.
The most unfortunate country in this region is Zimbabwe, because of poverty. According to statistics, by 2021, about 6.1 million people lived below the international poverty line.
Here are the top 10 countries in the African Region and their score:
- Mauritius – 6.071
