The EU Social Progress Index (EU-SPI) is a measure of societal development and quality of life at the regional level that goes beyond the Gross Domestic Product. The Index measures social progress in European regions using twelve components described by a total number of 55 comparable social and environmental indicators, purposefully excluding economic aspects. Its components are further aggregated into three broader dimensions related to basic human needs, foundations of wellbeing and opportunity. Reports on the EU-SPI present the index and underlying scores for the three separate dimensions. Developed by the European Commission.
