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 mAchieving 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.

实现联合国可持续发展目标和欧盟关于环境和社会可持续性的政策，需要对人类进步进行全面衡量，而不仅仅是关注GDP。然而，关于替代方法的证据是碎片化的，在竞争性指标和政策框架上缺乏共识是一个问题。实现联合国可持续发展目标和欧盟的环境和社会可持续性政策需要对人类进步进行全面衡量，而不仅仅是关注GDP。然而，关于替代方法的证据并不完整，而且在相互竞争的指标和政策框架方面缺乏共识，这是制定促进多维福祉的政策目标以及监测和衡量进展的主要障碍。MERGE通过提供对话、共同创造和知识交流的论坛，以及将前沿研究与政策实践联系起来，来应对这些挑战。MERGE是一个由该领域领先的研究人员和关键社区组成的联盟，汇集了最近成立的三个高等教育研究联盟（spe, ToBe, WISE Horizons）和一个ERC资助（REAL）。为了扩大成果，合并提供了一个框架，用于创建和加强多学科研究人员社区、技术和知识网络、政策网络和民间社会行动者网络。通过这些网络，MERGE的目标是在欧盟和成员国以及全球组织和民间社会的地球边界内，就易于使用和可接受的指标和框架建立广泛共识，以衡量多维福祉。MERGE参与者将受益于协作和培训活动、分析、指标、数据集和政策简报。通过知识交流，利益相关者和研究人员可以在自己的工作中采用并形成对可持续经济范式的系统和连贯的理解。
