Title of the project: “Same pillars, diverse outcomes: the impact of intra-party democracy on the quality of democracy”
Supervisors: Luca Verzichelli (Università di Siena, DISPOC), Bruno Marino (Università di Padova)
I am a PhD candidate in Social Sciences and Humanities at the University of Siena. I hold a BA in political science from the University of the Andes (Colombia) and an MA in political science from the University of Milan (Italy). My research focuses on political parties, democracy and public opinion, and my doctoral dissertation examines the relation between intra-party democracy and the quality of democracy. I have also worked as a data and investigative journalist, contributing to projects that were awarded four international journalism prizes.
