Measuring what matters: Improving usability and accessibility of policy frameworks and indicators for multidimensional well-being through collaboration

Projektbeschreibung

Die BIP-Schwelle für nachhaltige Entwicklung überwinden

Beim Streben nach nachhaltiger Entwicklung sind die Grenzen des BIP als einziges Maß für den Fortschritt deutlich geworden. Um die Ziele für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung der Vereinten Nationen zu erreichen und die EU-Politik zu Umweltschutz und sozialer Nachhaltigkeit anzupassen, ist ein umfassenderer Ansatz erforderlich. Die Erkenntnisse zu alternativen Maßnahmen sind jedoch fragmentiert, sodass kein einheitlicher Rahmen eingerichtet werden kann. Ein großes Problem beim Aufstellen und Kontrollieren wirksamer Ziele ist der mangelnde Konsens über Indikatoren und politische Rahmenbedingungen. Daher soll über das EU-finanzierte Projekt MERGE der Dialog ausgebaut werden. Bei MERGE als kollaborativer Initiative kommen führende Forschende und wichtige Interessengruppen zusammen, um den Dialog und Wissensaustausch zu fördern.

Achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the European Union's policies on environmental and social sustainability requires a comprehensive measure of human progress that does not focus solely on GDP.

However, the evidence on alternative approaches is fragmented and the lack of consensus on competing indicators and policy frameworks is a major obstacle to setting policy goals that promote multi-dimensional well-being and to monitoring and measuring progress. MERGE addresses these challenges by providing a forum for dialogue, co-creation and knowledge exchange, and by linking cutting-edge research and policy practice. A consortium of leading researchers and key communities in the field, MERGE brings together three recently launched higher education research consortia (SPES, ToBe, WISE Horizons) and an ERC grant (REAL). To scale up results, MERGE provides a framework for creating and strengthening a multidisciplinary community of researchers, a technical and knowledge network, a policy network and a network of civil society actors. Through these networks, MERGE aims to build a broad consensus on easy-to-use and acceptable indicators and frameworks for measuring multidimensional well-being within planetary boundaries in the EU and Member States, as well as in global organisations and civil society. MERGE participants will benefit from collaborative and training events, analyses, indicators, datasets and policy briefings. Through knowledge exchange, stakeholders and researchers can adopt and develop a systematic and coherent understanding of the sustainable economy paradigm in their own work.
