- Content analysis of dominant political discourse regarding the Roma
- Systematic evaluation of anti-discrimination policy and interventions
- Lab experiments about the influence of social norms on collective action
- Focus group discussions with stakeholders (Roma representatives, local, national, and EU officials, NGOs)
