Evolution of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education – the case study of Extremadura Region in Spain
Abstract
A critical review shows what has been the advance in the field of Entrepreneurship Education in Europe from the establishment of the Oslo Agenda in 2006 centering in three dimensions: research, educational and political implementation and social impact. The Council of Europe’s report “Entrepreneurship Education: a road to success” concludes that “students participating in entrepreneurship education are more likely to start their own business and their companies tend to be more innovative and more successful than those led by persons without entrepreneurship education backgrounds. Entrepreneurship education alumni are at lower risk of being unemployed, and are more often in steady employment. Compared to their peers, they have better jobs and make more money”. We will try to measure and test these conclusions in a regional case study (Extremadura in Spain). Desk research has been conducted to go beyond a state of art, highlighting, from a critical approach, key questions on intercultural issues about entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education. In the context of a case study (the region of Extremadura in Spain) quantitative and qualitative data are integrated into the analysis. Qualitative methods included participant observation.

ABSTRACT
La riqueza de patrimonio cultural religioso que posee el Ecuador en muy amplia, principalmente, porque al hablar de arte en el país es hablar sobre la religión directamente. Con la llegada de la conquista español se inició con la construcción de impresionantes edificaciones que ratificaban la presencia de la religión católica en el país. Una de los más grandes exponentes de esta riqueza es el Centro Historio de la Quito, ubicado en la capital del país. Este artículo se plantea como objetivo principal describir y analizar la Ruta de la Espiritualidad a la cual se suma el singular trayecto de las siete cruces, con la finalidad de a través de su integración se pueda proponer una ruta alterna que potencie el turismo religioso a lo largo de todo el año dentro de la ciudad de Quito. La metodología utilizada constituye un análisis descriptivo apoyado en fuentes primarias y secundarias que abordan el origen, historia y acciones que se han desarrollo hasta el momento dentro de este trayecto. Entre las principales conclusiones resalta que el centro histórico dispone de elementos singulares que permite la inserción de una nueva experiencia turística, particularmente por la cercanía y concentración de los atractivos en un reducido espacio, hecho que facilita el desarrollo del trayecto turístico y permite proyectar el turismo religioso a lo largo de todo el año.
