Contributing to the targets of SDG #17, this book interrogates how the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) and other indicators are (or can be) relevant for entering the global discussion on UN SDGs. By highlighting the topic of 'well-being' as a major connecting point between the SDGs, the GEM and other surveys the book has three main purposes: firstly, it shows that GEM data can contribute significantly to the monitoring process of the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals; secondly it analyses the survey’s capacity to add value to the global discussion on well-being; thirdly, the book places emphasis on the pressing need for data in order to monitor the achievement of the SDGs. Ultimately, the book provides sound research that can serve as a basis for discussion with the UN on potential partnerships within the framework of SDG 17. The authors encourage GEM and other researchers to ensure that their data serves as a reliable partner to the UN in building a better world, based on well-being for everyone.

Este texto se configura como primera aproximación a la sistematización de un proceso que esperamos sea de largo aliento. Uno en el que se aborda el emprendimiento de la “empresa” como un dispositivo monolítico, como una agencia de estructura rígida, de producción de bienes materiales y orientada por el lucro per se como único telos que le da sentido. Se presenta aquí un conjunto de acercamientos diversos y con distintos niveles de elaboración que dan cuenta de experiencias contribuidas por varias instituciones de educación superior, y que muestran su manera de considerar el currículo como una medición importante en la formación del espíritu y la actitud emprendedora.
