FIJI Post-Disaster Needs Assessment<br />
2.3.2 Composite Index on Quality of Life<br />
An equal-weight, composite quality of life index was developed when combining the different sectoral indexes described<br />
above, for both pre- and post-disaster conditions in all affected provinces of <strong>Fiji</strong>. Table 21 and Figure 15 show such<br />
estimated values. Based on the quality of life estimates, determining the areas where people live that were most affected<br />
by the disaster is possible.<br />
