Index finds Czechia has high level of social cohesion in EU comparison

Czechia has the ninth-highest level of social trust and solidarity in the EU, according to the latest Prosperity and Financial Health Index by Česká spořitelna and the Europe in Data portal. The analysis shows that 63 percent of Czechs helped a stranger in the past month and that nine out of ten Czechs have someone to turn to in case of an emergency.

On the other hand, Czechia lost social cohesion points due to low trust in the government and the ongoing problem of corruption. Czechia ranked 16th among the 27 European member states in managing corruption.
