Gwendolyn Mingham receives Franz-Urban-Pappi-Prize

Gwendolyn Mingham receives Franz-Urban-Pappi-Prize for their Master thesis „LGB without the T? Testing the Trans­ferability of International Gay Norm Diffusion Predictors on Trans­gender Rights“.

We are excited to announce that Gwendolyn Mingham was awarded the Franz-Urban-Pappi Prize for their master's thesis, supervised by Prof. Thomas Gschwend, exploring whether predictors of LGB rights expansion apply to trans­gender rights. The study argues that trans rights face greater resistance due to their challenge to binary gender norms. With original theory, self-collected data from 49 countries, and advanced statistical analysis, the work makes a significant contribution to research on norm diffusion and minority rights. Gwendolyn is now a PhD candidate at the Technical University of Munich.

 Congratulations, Gwenny!
