The WEWell project is an innovative multidisciplinary investigation of mental wellbeing construction through the interplay of structure and agency in the context of women entrepreneurship. The project is located at the intersection of psychology, sociology and management; and combines qualitative life story interviews with 60 women entrepreneurs with a longitudinal quantitative diary study over 14 weeks of the same 60 women. Based on this multi-method design, the project sets to investigate the drivers, dynamics and circumstances surrounding women entrepreneurs' wellbeing and through this to build new dynamic and contextualized theory of women entrepreneurs' wellbeing. The focus on women entrepreneurs is expected to contribute to policy-relevant research geared towards reducing inequalities in life; the focus on wellbeing will provide new input for the efforts to measure wellbeing as a reflection of national level of development.The project is an ambitious attempt to create opportunities for accelerated professional growth for the researcher, Dr. Markowska through the immersive experience of working together with the expert supervisor Professor Ute Stephan of King's College London (KCL) and non-academic placement host, Professor Friederike Welter, the President of Institute for Mittelstandforschung (IfM), Germany. While Professor Stephan is a leading expert in applied psychology research and one of the pioneers of research on entrepreneurship and wellbeing including new recovery perspective, Professor Welter is a leading expert in policy research, particularly in the context of women entrepreneurship, combining economic and sociological perspectives. The nonacademic placement is designed to help generate greater impact from the project and maximize learning how to effectively work with policy makers. The outcomes from WEWell will be relevant for European research, economic and social life and policy and will provide growth trajectory for the fellow.

WEWell 项目是一项创新的多学科调查，通过女性创业背景下结构和机构的相互作用来构建心理健康。该项目位于心理学、社会学和管理学的交叉点；并将对 60 名女性企业家的定性生活故事采访与对这 60 名女性进行 14 周的纵向定量日记研究相结合。基于这种多方法设计，该项目着手调查女性企业家福祉的驱动因素、动态和环境，并通过此建立新的动态和情境化的女企业家福祉理论。对女企业家的关注预计将有助于旨在减少生活不平等的政策相关研究；对福祉的关注将为衡量福祉以反映国家发展水平的努力提供新的投入。该项目是一项雄心勃勃的尝试，旨在通过沉浸式的合作体验，为研究员 Markowska 博士创造加速专业成长的机会与伦敦国王学院（KCL）的专家导师Ute Stephan教授和非学术实习主持人、德国中小型研究学院（IfM）院长Friederike Welter教授一起。斯蒂芬教授是应用心理学研究领域的领先专家，也是创业和福祉（包括新的复苏视角）研究的先驱之一，而韦尔特教授则是政策研究的领先专家，特别是在女性创业背景下，结合了经济和社会学的观点。非学术安置旨在帮助项目产生更大的影响，并最大限度地学习如何与政策制定者有效合作。 WEWell 的成果将与欧洲研究、经济和社会生活以及政策相关，并将为该研究员提供成长轨迹。
