Analyzing and Visualizing Data in Politics
In 2023, I completed two of my first projects in R as part of a data visualization course.
The first project focused on reproductive rights and analyzed protest activity related to these issues. Using data from the Crowd Counting Consortium, I filtered events to those related to “women,” “women’s issues,” and “reproductive rights” to examine patterns in protest activity.
The second project used the TRIP dataset to explore the legal protections afforded to transgender individuals across countries, highlighting both areas of protection and gaps in policy coverage worldwide.
To produce these reports, I used a LaTeX template, integrating figures and written analysis to create the final documents shown below. If you are interested in the code or replication materials, they are available here.
