[Futuregen] Data Navigator - possible region/country clusters

[Ricardo Rodrigues]

Dear colleagues,

As agreed in the last zoom, I would like to kick-start the discussion on 
the regional clusters to try for the Data Navigator. Below is my 
suggestion from a care perspective (other groupings could be relevant, 
especially for caregiving, but I think this one would be general enough 
in my opinion).

We could also have different groupings for different variables, but that 
might be too confusing, even if we would signal that in the website.

Looking forward to your views on this.

I also circulate some an individual country graphs with smooth lines 
(thank you to Eszter) - i.e. with lines that take into account the wider 
time gap between some waves of SHARE. This produces actually relatively 
smooth trends for wealth. Just as an additional input.

Best wishes,

Ricardo


Possible regional/welfare regime clusters for Data Navigator:

*Eastern Europe*: Czech Republic (if only till wave 6) OR Czech 
Republic, Slovenia and Estonia (if also using wave 7 - e.g. ADLs)

*Southern Europe*: Spain, Italy (if only till wave 6) OR Spain, Italy 
and Greece (if also wave 7 - there are some issues with the Greek data 
by income/wealth for the 1st wave)

*Continental Europe*: Austria, Germany, France, Belgium (if only till 
wave 6), OR Austria, Germany, France, Belgium and Switzerland (if also 
wave 7).

*Nordic Europe*: Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands (regardless of wave).

Continental Europe is the Smørrebrød or gulasch group here, but 
personally I could live with this from a care perspective. Similarly, 
the Netherlands would be a "Nordic country" based on its system 
characteristics - this may be a contentious country for the ADL and 
IADL. Switzerland is a bit of an odd-country out but it fits with the 
Continental group of sorts.

I considered only countries that were at least in 3 waves of SHARE.
