Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a brief sketch of what has been a wide project funded by the Puglia region with a group of researchers at the University of Salento. The purpose of the project was to provide three indexes that are based on the principle of sustainability and gender equality as a new tool to address public policies. Here we will focus our attention on one particular index definition and evaluation in a fuzzy way. This index we named Life would offer, in an aggregated way, an evaluation of the connection between quality of daily work and life.
