A Framework for Incorporating Environmental Indicators to the Measurement of Human Well-Being
Published By: UNU-WIDER on eSS | Published Date: January, 19 , 2005This study, relying on an economic-theoretical approach to index numbers, proposes a
framework for incorporating environmental indicators to the measurement of human
well-being. Furthermore this study also proposes an improvement index which
alleviates the well-known deficiency of across-time comparison of the deprivation
index. The advantage of the proposed index is that it does not require normative
judgement in the selection of weights to aggregate over constituent indices. [Research Paper No. 2005/05]
