The Quality of Life Index (QLI)/ Basic Capabilities Index (BCI) Gender Equity Index Social Watch use of composite index to measure overall poverty and well-being
Quality of Life Index QLI is an alternative measure of people’s well-being • It is a derivative of the pure capability-based measure as proposed and popularized by Amartya Sen. • It complements HDI and Income-based poverty measures • Index is composed of 3 Indicators with equal weights: • 1) Capability to be well-nourished • Under-five nutrition status • 2) Capability for healthy and safe reproduction Births attended by trained health personnel 3) Capability to be educated & be knowledgeable Elementary Cohort Survival Rate

Quality of Life Index (QLI) Basic Capabilities Index (BCI) QLI was adopted by Social Watch International with a slight modification of the Component Indicators 1) Under-five child mortality 2) Births attended by trained health personnel 3) Cohort Survival to Grade 5 Applied Globally and found to be applicable for significant number of countries and highly correlated to HDI, Food Security, overall Health and Educational Attainment.
