This report compares child wellbeing in developed countries around the world. It includes 3 parts. Part 1 presents a league table of child well-being and details performance in the areas of material well-being, healthy and safety, education, behaviours and risks, and housing and environment. Part 2 looks at subjective well-being, and features a league table of children's life satisfaction. Part 3 examines changes in child well-being in advanced economies over the first decade of the 2000s, looking at each country?s progress in educational achievement, teenage birth rates, childhood obesity levels, the prevalence of bullying, and the use of tobacco, alcohol and drugs. Note, Australia, Bulgaria, Chile, Cyprus, Israel, Japan, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, the Republic of Korea, and Turkey were unable to be included in league tables, due to insufficient data, but their data is noted in individual sections when available.

Report Card 9 The Children Left Behind presents a first overview of inequalities in child well-being for 24 Member States of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development. The Report Card focuses on the relative gap between children in the bottom of the distribution with those occupying the median. Three dimensions of well-being are examined: material, education, and health. In each case, the questions asked are: how far behind children are being allowed to fall, and why some countries are doing so much better at protecting their most vulnerable children.

For the last 20 years, the Innocenti Report Card series has led the way in comparing children's well-being across rich countries. Report Card 16 develops this further through a multi-level approach to show that children's well-being is influenced by children's own actions and relationships, by the networks and resources of their caregivers, and by public policies and the national context. This approach is aligned with the 1989 United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, in that it recognizes the responsibilities of governments, families and communities to help realize children's rights and promote their well-being.

This Report Card provides a comprehensive assessment of the lives and well-being of children and young people in 21 nations of the industrialized world. Its purpose is to encourage monitoring, to permit comparison, and to stimulate the discussion and development of policies to improve children’s lives. It is the seventh in a series of Innocenti Report Cards, designed to monitor and compare the performance of the OECD countries in securing the rights of their children.

This publication provides a comparative assessment of the lives and well-being of children and young people in 21 industrialised countries of the OECD, drawing on 40 separate indicators and grouped under six different headings or dimensions: material well-being; health and safety; education; peer and family relationships; behaviours and risks; and subjective well-being (young people's own sense of well-being). This first multi-dimensional assessment of child well-being across the countries of the OECD seeks to stimulate discussion and development of policies to improve children's lives. Although heavily dependent on the available data, this assessment is also guided by a concept of child well-being that is in turn guided by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Findings include: i) Northern European countries head the table of overall child well-being, with the Netherlands ranked first followed by Sweden, Denmark and Finland; ii) the UK and the United States are at the bottom of the table, and other countries in the bottom third of rankings include Hungary, Austria, Portugal and France; and iii) there is no obvious relationship between levels of child well-being and GDP per capita, with for example, the Czech Republic achieving a higher overall rank than wealthier countries such as France, the US and the UK.

Though child well-being has been traditionally assessed through measures of financial poverty or deprivation, many studies are now including the subjective opinions of children on their own well-being. However, while there is a relationship between these two measures, it is not necessarily a direct and unidirectional one. This paper explores subjective well-being in more detail. It looks at the concept and the analysis of subjective well-being, changes in subjective well-being during the last decade, the factors that explain the variations in subjective well-being, the Relationship between subjective and objective domains, and The relationship between subjective well-being and structural factors. This paper is based on research from Innocenti report card 11, 'Child well-being in rich countries: a comparative overview', and includes data on well-being in European and North American nations.

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) - Innocenti Research Centre Report Card series provokes debate on child well-being in wealthy countries. It provides an important tool to address critical issues affecting disadvantaged children in the industrialized world. Since 2000, the Centre has released nine issues of the series, each addressing different aspects of the living conditions of children and adolescents. All the Report Cards are built around a league table, ranking countries according to their performance on a key child indicator or group of indicators. This issue investigates poverty and vulnerability among children in rich countries.

The data and observations in this Innocenti Report Card reveal a strong and multifaceted correlation between the impact of the Great Recession on national economies and a decline in children's well-being since 2008. Children are suffering most, and will bear the consequences longest, in countries where the recession has hit hardest. For each country, the extent and character of the crisis's impact on children has been shaped by the depth of the recession, pre-existing economic conditions, the strength of the social safety net and, most importantly, policy responses. Remarkably, amid this unprecedented social crisis, many countries have managed to limit - or even reduce - child poverty. It was by no means inevitable, then, that children would be the most enduring victims of the recession.
