Our first endeavour in this project is <strong>to map the demand side and the supply side on issues related to sex and gender<\/strong>. Despite this mainly being a descriptive task, it is necessary so that we can identify whether we are dealing with a problem of substantive representation. Our aim is to locate areas of \u201cweak\u201d gender representation and compare them across parties, particularly between mainstream and right-wing populist parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related WP: 1 to 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once this is established, further analytic steps will follow in phase two, focusing on voting behaviour, to<strong>explore how substantive gender-based representation impacts party preferences and voter decisions<\/strong>, controlling for country- and party-level contextual variables, and including relevant individual data on men and women voters and their gender attitudes. This is achieved by developing, administering, and analysing the data from a new survey. The analysis will provide us with a deeper understanding of voter decision-making as well as all the relevant information needed to start phase three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related WP: 6 to 8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third phase focuses on collaboration withwider society to <strong>co-develop policy recommendations to improve sex- and gender-based representation by mainstream parties<\/strong>, which might diminish the appeal of extreme populism, particularly right-wing populist actors. At the same time, by reviewing the literature on how right-wing populist actors mobilize public opinion, we will develop political communication strategies to deepen the reach of the new policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related WP: 9 to 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"873\" height=\"1008\" src=\"https:\/\/www.upo.es\/investiga\/UNTWIST\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/horizon-europe-methodologies-scheme.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"has-border-color has-tertiary-border-color wp-image-970\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>METHODOLOGY UNTWIST is divided into three methodological phases.
