In short, <\/span>readers are happier than those who do not read<\/strong>. Researchers conclude that reading plays an important role at the cognitive and emotional level as <\/span>the perception of happiness among those who read is greate<\/strong>r<\/strong>. Applying indexes such as Veenhoven’s Measurement of Happiness and scales such as the Diener to record the degree of satisfaction with life, researchers have reached these conclusions.<\/span><\/p>\n

The United Nations (UN) established March 20 as the International Day of Happiness since 2012. This celebration responds to the <\/span>universal human need and aspiration to enjoy greater well-being and maximum happiness.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The UN ensures the achievement of <\/span>17 Sustainable Development Goals<\/strong> in order to reduce poverty and inequality, to ultimately improve global welfare of society. At ODILO, we work to guarantee access to <\/span>quality reading since it is the key to improving educational levels and reducing inequalities<\/strong> and, consequently, <\/span>increasing overall welfare and societal happiness<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n
