Global Health Perceived as Good or Very Good Among Persons Aged 15+ with a Low Level of Education by Country

In 2023, global health perception among those aged 15+ with low education was notably high in New Zealand at 84.2% and Canada at 79.2%. Conversely, Lithuania had the lowest value at 25%. Observed trends from 2023 show improvements in countries like the Czech Republic, with significant growth of 8.54%, reflecting healthier perceptions. Conversely, Denmark saw a sharp decline of 5.87% year-on-year. Eastern European countries like Poland, Estonia, and Latvia exhibited positive growth in health perception. In contrast, Western European nations such as Ireland and Sweden saw declines.

Future trends to watch include continued improvements in Eastern Europe, driven by public health initiatives. However, Western European countries may face challenges in reversing the declining perceptions of health quality. Monitoring initiatives aimed at improving health education among low-education groups will be vital. Additionally, understanding the impact of socio-economic changes and healthcare policies will be essential for forecasting future trends in health perception.
