About

Daniela Osorio Michel is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the German Institute for Global and Area Studies. She received her Ph.D. in Political Science from Vanderbilt University. Her research focuses on questions of identity, public opinion, representation, and democracy. Using quantitative, qualitative, and experimental methodologies, she studies the barriers women politicians face to achieving office. By applying a comparative perspective, she questions the generalizability of conventional theories regarding women and politics. She is currently part of the research project Democratic Institutions in the Global South (DEMINGS) at the GIGA. She is part of ECPR's Standing Groups on Gender and Politics and on Latin American Politics. For more information: https://danielaosoriomichel.wixsite.com/home
