Report on the situation of female authors
The EPESEP team is developing an online survey that will be disseminated far and wide to gather and analyse responses on pay, show and pension gap, reception, social and economic standing of female authors in the countries of our Project Partners. The goal is to eventually propose countermeasures to improve the situation throughout Europe.
Work Steps
-
Drafting the survey questions in collaboration with an Austrian Interdisciplinary Research Institute, FORBA (www.forba.at)
-
Once questions are finalised, making the online survey available in English, German, Dutch and Armenian languages
-
Dispersing the online survey as widely as possible to stakeholders, on the website and on social media. Simultaneously controlling the survey results
-
Conducting 10+ interviews with female authors and literary experts, and setting up focus groups in the participating countries
-
Evaluation and assessment of the online survey (quantitative), and interviews and focus groups (qualitative) in a report by each Partner Organisation which will be made available in national and international reports
-
Determining the best possible course of action on a national and international level
-
Dissemination of results and proposed countermeasures to relevant sources and online channels. Interim results will be presented during the symposia and will be discussed by stakeholders regularly
