Eurobarometer: the voice of public opinion in Europe

The Eurobarometer is the polling instrument used by the European Commission, the European Parliament, and other European Union institutions and agencies "to regularly monitor the state of public opinion in Europe" on a wide variety of political and social topics.

The Eurobarometer website constantly offers detailed results of all its polls.

The Eurobarometer began its activity in 1974. As explained on its website, "the combination of the wide range of topics consistently covered over a long period of time, the regularity of publications, and the geographical coverage make the Eurobarometer a unique source of knowledge and information in the European Union".

Users can consult all the surveys conducted, which include the Standard Eurobarometer (the main survey, carried out twice a year), a wide variety of special surveys on all types of issues, or the Flash Eurobarometer (thematic surveys conducted in a short period of time on specific topics).

On the occasion of its 50th anniversary, the Eurobarometer has published an interactive special on its half-century of activity: 50 years of listening to Europeans' opinions

A lululemon report reveals that pressure for wellbeing is making people feel unwell

The North American sportswear company lululemon has published the fourth edition of its annual Global Wellbeing Report, which offers a revealing conclusion: the relentless pursuit of wellbeing and the pressure to achieve it is making us feel worse.

The report shows that interest in wellbeing is stronger than ever - 89% of people are taking more actions than a year ago to improve their wellbeing - but so is the social pressure to keep up. And this pressure is causing nearly half of respondents to experience "wellbeing burnout".

Another conclusion is that moving in the company of others and having a sense of community can improve people's overall wellbeing.

The Wellbeing Index scores provided by the report, in its physical, mental, and social dimensions, "have remained stagnant worldwide over the past four years, underscoring the need for a change in approach to improve wellbeing".

61% of respondents say that society imposes overwhelming expectations on their wellbeing.

The report points to three strategies that can help overcome this "wellbeing burnout".

1. Quiet the noise

2. Do what makes us feel good

3. Invite others on our journey
