YOPOW on Tour

In May and June 2026, Kristina presented first work from the YOPOW project.

On 19 May Kristina gave a talk titled “Power? Youth Conceptions and their Gendered Implications” at the Department of Sociology, University of Zurich, sharing early findings from the project. On 4 June she presented at a co-hosted session of the Comparative Politics Seminar Series and the Gender, Politics, and Society Working Group at the European University Institute in Florence.

The paper, “Politics is Power? Youth Conceptions and their Gendered Implications”, examines how young people in the US, Germany, and Denmark conceptualise politics and power, and what this means for gendered gaps in political participation and representation.
