Ghana’s position on the latest World Happiness Report, a United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network publication, has dropped to 111th in 2022 from 95th in 2021.
The report ranks countries based on their average life evaluations over the previous three years, with data collected from more than 150 countries through the Gallup World Poll.
Released on the International Day of Happiness (March 20), the report identifies the happiest and least happy nations, as well as the factors that lead to greater happiness.
Finland tops the list for the sixth year in a row, with Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and the Netherlands completing the top five.
Mauritius is the highest-ranked African country at 52nd, with no African nation in the top 50.
