The Social Progress Index sums all this together using 52 indicators1 to create an aggregate2 score on a scale of 0 to 100.
“社会进步指数”用52个指标把这些都集中到了一起,算出了一个百分制的总分。
And what we find is that there's a wide diversity of performance in the world today.
然后我们发现了今天的世界上的国家有各种各样的成绩。
The highest performing country, Norway, scores 88.
成绩最高的国家是挪威,88分。
The lowest performing country, Central African Republic, scores 31.
成绩最低的国家是中非共和国,31分。
And we can add up all the countries together, weighting for the different population sizes, and that global score is 61.
我们可以把所有的国家都放在一起,考量它们具有不同的人口规模的因素后,得到全球的平均值是61分。
In concrete terms, that means that the average human being
形象化地说,这意味着现在世界平均值的水平
is living on a level of social progress about the same of Cuba or Kazakhstan today.
是我们人类正生活在像今天的古巴或者哈萨克斯坦这样的国家里。
That's where we are today: 61 out of 100.
我们的现实就是这样:百分制中的61分。
What do we have to get to to achieve the Global Goals?
那我们如果要实现全球目标需要什么呢?
Now, the Global Goals are certainly ambitious3, but they're not about turning the world into Norway in just 15 years.
其实,这些全球目标真的很宏大,但是这些目标不是说要在15年间把全世界都变成挪威那样。
So having looked at the numbers, my estimate is that a score of 75 would not only be a giant leap forward in human well-being4,
看看这些数字,我做出的预测是75分,达到这个分数不仅仅是一个关于人类福祉的巨大飞跃,
it would also count as hitting the Global Goals target.
也是一个可以实现全球目标的切实奋斗点。
So there's our target, 75 out of 100. Can we get there?
这就是我们的目标,百分制中的75分。我们能实现吗?
Well, the Social Progress Index can help us calculate this,
那么,“社会进步指数”可以帮助我们算出来,
because as you might have noticed, there are no economic indicators in there;
因为也许你已经注意到了,这里没有任何的经济指标;
there's no GDP or economic growth in the Social Progress Index model.
在“社会进步指数”模型中没有国内生产总值或经济增长的指标。
And what that lets us do is understand the relationship between economic growth and social progress.
这就要让我们弄明白经济增长和社会进步之间的关系。
