Human Progress
Overwhelming evidence from scholars and international organizations shows a dramatic improvement in human well-being. Yet much of what is written and said about the state of humanity either ignores the speed and extent of human progress or expresses pessimism about its future. In response, HumanProgress.org was created as a valuable and trusted research tool. The site allows users to compare many indicators of human well-being, and to create and export graphical representations of those findings.
