AI Impact on Wellbeing Index

Ongoing

The AI Impact on Human Wellbeing Index — Social Dimension (a Global Wellbeing Forum initiative) evaluates the net social effect of AI adoption across every nation, disaggregated by high-, middle-, and low-income country groups. Rather than treating "AI and society" as one uniform story, the methodology blends research-based quantitative analysis (surveys, national statistics, academic studies) with grassroots qualitative research (community interviews, civil society partnerships, local social scientists) to capture both what the data shows and what it misses. The result is a transparent, income-tier-adjusted scorecard showing where AI is strengthening social bonds, trust, and participation — and where it's eroding them.
