Global Social Mobility Index

Inequality and Development

The Global Social Mobility Index is a measure created and published by the World Economic Forum that assesses social mobility holistically across five determinants: health, education, technology, work, and institutions. The World Economic Forum released the inaugural edition in 2020, and as of the source consulted it had not been updated since that first release. Denmark topped the inaugural 2020 ranking with a score of 85.2 out of 100, reflecting the Nordic countries' strong showing across the index's five determinants.
