Online Abuse and Discrimination in British politics: Women’s experiences and mitigation strategies

This project, funded by a British Academy/Leverhulme small grant, aims to establish to what extent online abuse impacts on the willingness of women and minoritized groups to work in politics and how they negotiate or mitigate the impact of these communications on their working lives by conducting a qualitative survey and semi-structured interviews to explore these experiences in more detail.
