Abstract

The article presents the results of the development and testing of an integral assessment of child well-being in Russia. The authors rely on the approach used by international organisations such as UNICEF and OECD, which defines child well-being as a set of parameters affecting the lives of children now and in the future. Particular attention is paid to addressing the research question of what indicators, given the availability and reliability of the empirical base, should be presented in an index of child well-being to characterise its economic component. The Statistical Index of Child Well-Being (SIDB) proposed by the authors includes 27 indicators based on official statistical data and the results of sample surveys conducted by Rosstat, which allow us to assess the level of child well-being in Russian regions. Each of these indicators can be assigned to a specific domain and type of results. The SIDB's Material Well-Being domain includes six indicators and indicators that reflect the availability of resources for a child and his or her family to achieve the ultimate goals of his or her development. The paper presents the results of testing the subindex ‘Material Well-being' based on data for 2020-2022 in the regional context. They make it possible to analyse the dynamics of this subindex, compare the levels of children's economic well-being in Russian regions, objectively assess achievements and highlight problems in ensuring children's well-being in general.
