In 2003, the Foundation carried out a European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS) in 28 countries. This survey examined issues such as education, household and family structures, housing, health care and employment. It provides a wide-ranging, up-to-date snapshot of quality of life and living conditions in the enlarged Europe.

The Foundation launched its European Quality of Life Survey in 2003. The first results of this ambitious attempt to explore quality of life issues in 28 countries – the EU25 and three candidate countries, Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey – provide a comprehensive portrait of the face of an enlarged Europe. With comparisons between countries as well as between demographic, social and economic groups, the report documents material conditions, employment situations, living and working conditions, family and community life, health and housing in the 28 countries. It looks at the views of Europe’s citizens on these conditions, their subjective well-being and their assessments of the society in which they live.
