I started working on the Gender Wage Gap project in October. In September and October this year (covid-19 permitting), I will be in Geneva to work with Mathias Studer on the Gender Pay Gap Project, using the methodology developed by Bolano and Studer.

A few of our earlier Data Impact Fellows (who we south africa rcs data still consider part of our ‘family’) have had some changes:

I recently took up a (currently part-time) post of Research Associate at the University of Manchester (Cathie Marsh Institute), while I complete my PhD dissertation. I am very excited to be working on the DiCED project:

Digital Campaigning and Electoral Democracy (DiCED). DiCED is a major new comparative project that will study the drivers and effects of digital campaigning in 5 countries and 7 national elections during the period 2020-2023. It will use an exciting mix of social and data science methods to investigate questions about the rise of a new form of ‘data-driven’ campaigning (DDC) within new and established democracies. Specifically, it will look at how far are digital and data-related innovations are fundamentally changing how campaigns are run, who runs them, and what their effects are on voters, parties and democratic systems more generally. DiCED is led by Professor Rachel Gibson and will be delivered by a team of country, methodological and data management experts from the UK, Germany, France, Poland and the U.S. The project will draw on a range of established and newer cutting-edge methods and data that will allow for unique insights into how and where data-driven campaign practices such as micro-targeting, are being deployed. This will include the use of online surveys, interviews and experimental methods, as well as techniques drawn from AI, computer and data science such as natural language processing and topic modeling.
