Τhe Gender Gap in Southeast Europe | Part I: Gender and Political Leadership

This is the first in a ten-part series examining these gender gaps through the lens of the Youth Study data. Each analysis will explore a different dimension of the gender divide—political leadership, employment attitudes, partnership expectations, tolerance and values, political participation, and more. Some will take a regional perspective, identifying patterns across Southeast Europe, while others will dive deep into country-specific dynamics revealed by unique national survey questions.

Starting with political leadership, new data from nearly 9,000 young people reveals a striking gap in attitudes toward political leadership: 1 in 4 young men believe men make better leaders, compared to just 1 in 10 young women. You might think political interest or ideology would bridge this divide — but the patterns may challenge your expectations.
