2. A new way of looking at the world
The idea of the Good Country Index is pretty simple: to measure what each
country on earth contributes to the common good of humanity.
What it mean by a Good Country is something much simpler: it’s a country that
contributes to the greater good.
The Good Country Index doesn’t measure what countries do at home: What
the Index does aim to do is to start a global discussion about how countries can
balance their duty to their own citizens with their responsibility to the wider
world, because this is essential for the future of humanity and the health of our
planet.
