[JIM CURRAN]

Ireland ranked second in the world for quality of life, beating Sweden, Germany and UK

Ireland now in the ‘very high’ camp, ranked joint second with Switzerland and behind only Norway in the ranking

Pedro Conceição, the lead author of the report, said Ireland’s improved ranking was due above all to advances in education.

“The Irish economy has almost doubled since 1990, but the biggest driver was actually education. That was the indicator that made relatively more progress since 1990,” Mr Conceição said.
