On the 1st of December, Giulia Evolvi, NMRDC assistant director and board member, launched the project MERGE- Media, religion, and gender: transnational digital media actions of progressive and conservative social movements. MERGE is a funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions programme, and is conducted at the University of Bologna, with the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Pittsburgh as host institutions for the outgoing phase. The project explores religion, media, and gender; in particular, it aims to capture the heterogeneity of modern Catholicism focusing on both conservative and progressive Catholic social movements and their online interactions on issues related to gender.
