It is the International Day of Happiness on Monday March 20 and there is reason for hope, according to the most recent study on global happiness, which found benevolence levels were higher than they were before the Covid pandemic broke out.
The United Nations has just published its annual ranking of the world’s happiest countries.

It also investigates the distribution of happiness within countries to assess the gap between happy and unhappy people.
