Children’s Worlds, the International Survey of Children’s Well-Being (ISCWeB), is a worldwide research survey on children’s subjective well-being.
The study aims to collect solid and representative data on children’s lives and daily activities, their time use and in particular on their own perceptions and evaluations of their well-being.
The purpose is to improve children’s well-being by creating awareness among children, their parents and their communities, but also among opinion leaders, decision makers, professionals and the general public.
