HONR 46100 - Well-Being

Credit Hours: 3.00.  Copenhagen, Zurich, Helsinki, Stockholm, and Tokyo are the five most livable cities in the world according to MONOCLE’s 2021 Quality of Life Index. They are the highest ranking cities when using metrics to measure crime, emergency services’ response time, transportation networks, cycling culture, food, drink, retail, and the number of independent bookshops. MONOCLE’s Quality of Life survey is one among the many that exist to rank the world’s best cities, but wealth is one theme that emerges from among the varying indices and their respective results. The metrics, indeed the participants responding to the metrics, represent populations of people with high levels of discretionary income. How might the metrics reflect different values if these indices include a different kind of participant, such as the urban poor?Credits: 3.00
