Countries: Quality and Life

countries: In U.S. News and World Report's 2019 Best Countries Report, produced with the BAV Group and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, 20,300 respondents from 36 countries in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia and Africa were asked to score 80 countries based on 65 attributes, according to CTV. The attributes were grouped under categories like adventure, citizenship, cultural influence, entrepreneurship, heritage, movers, open for business, power and quality of life. In other categories, Canada was deemed to have the best quality of life and the U.K. best for education. For the third year in a row, Switzerland took to the top spot, scoring high in areas of business, quality of life and cultural influence. It's carved out a brand internationally, one of quality and impartiality, said Dan Hamilton of the John Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies in a statement. Or in this case, its perceived international neutrality. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
