How is unequal mobilisation related to the types information that lobbyists contribute to the policy process? And which conditions are most favourable to enhance the quality of information in lobbying exchanges?
The LOBBYMETRY project will speak to these and other related questions with data on different types of asymmetries across communities of interest organisations in Europe, as well as a cross-venue analysis of sampled issues in the climate and digital policy fields.
​
The project runs from 2025-2030, and is funded by the European Research Council (ERC), Starting Grant (PI: Wiebke Marie Junk).
​
How do European communities of civil society organisations (CSOs) survive and adapt to different types of crises?
Through a survey-based analysis of CSO activities in nine European countries and the European Union level, as well as a series of elite interviews, this project aims to assess the factors that make organisations more resilient.
​
The project runs from 2024 to 2027 and is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, New Investigator Grant (PI: Michele Crepaz).
How did interest groups and companies represent their political interests during the Coronavirus crisis? How has this crisis affected their ability to mobilise, and express their views and needs to decision-makers?
The InterCov project used two cross-country survey waves, as well as a series of focus group interviews, to address these and other questions across nine countries and at European Union level.
​
The project ran from 2020 to 2023, and was supported by funding from the Danish Society for Education and Business (PI: Wiebke Marie Junk).
