My research on the anti-gender equality movement is driven by its dual threat: not only does it endanger established rights like safe access to abortion and hinder gender equality progress, but it also aligns with the rise of far-right populist parties and movements. These movements target reproductive rights while advocating for stricter immigration laws.

Recently, the Dutch parliament has undoubtedly been getting more diverse than before. Since 2021 the first transgender woman MP, the first MP wearing a hijab, the first black woman party leader, and the first non-binary MP have been elected - to name just a few examples. But what challenges do these MPs face once in office? There is a need for better understanding of how these politicians can not only be elected, but also be included, stay in office, and build expertise and power.
