"I think no one expected such a clear signal," the head of the United Nations Development Program UNDP, Achim Steiner, told the German public association ARD. UNDP, in cooperation with the University of Oxford, surveyed 75,000 representatively selected people in 77 countries. This included a good 9,300 people with no formal education. A good 1,200 of them were women over 60 – “one of the hardest groups to survey,” according to the UNDP.
