Innovative Strategies in Education, Equity, and Commerce to Build an Economy Oriented Towards Happiness and Social Well-being

This project investigates the intersection of education, international trade, and gender equity as pillars of a well-being-oriented economy. Given the insufficiency of GDP as a sole development indicator, the study proposes a mixed-methods approach to analyze how these variables influence subjective well-being globally. Using an exploratory-correlational design, international databases and statistical analyses will be employed to identify successful national models. The core problem lies in the disconnection between these dimensions in public policy formulation, which perpetuates structural inequalities. The research seeks to fill this theoretical and practical gap, offering evidence-based recommendations to transform economic frameworks into more human-centric and sustainable models. Expected outcomes include the generation of interdisciplinary knowledge, the publication of scientific articles, and the formulation of public policy guidelines. The project aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 4, 5, 8, and 10), promoting a development vision that prioritizes social justice and quality of life over exclusive material growth.<br/><br/><b>Goal</b>: <br/>Analyze the interaction between education, international trade, and gender equity to shape an economy of happiness. The goal is to propose public policies that promote integral well-being and equitable wealth redistribution.<br/><br/><b>Research lines</b>: <br/>Social responsibility, redistribution of wealth and quality of life
