Title Voices in Transition: A Comprehensive Analysis of Albanian Romani Women in Greece Navigating and Challenging Patriarchy and Gender Inequality Prior to and Following Migration
Summary Through this research I investigate the experiences of Albanian Romani women in Greece, focusing on how they navigate and challenge patriarchal structures and gender inequality both before and after migration. Through qualitative research methods, including ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews, this study explores the intersection of gender, race, and migration. It highlights the persistent nature of patriarchal norms within the Romani community and the evolving dynamics of domestic work and gender roles post-migration. The findings underscore the complex interplay between traditional expectations and the new opportunities presented by migration, revealing both subtle forms of resistance and the reinforcement of existing inequalities. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of gender dynamics within marginalized communities and offers insights for future studies on intersectionality and migration.
