In the run-up to the 2019 European elections, EuVisions kicked off a special project centred around the current members of the EU Parliament.
Out of a total number of 750 MEPs, we are tracking the online activity of 666 deputies on Twitter, through their profiles. Currently, we are collecting all the tweets sent by MEPs, as well as, the reactions to the former, in terms of retweets and replies.
If you would like to have more information about the project, please write to Martina Zaghi, at m.zaghi30@gmail.com.

«The goal of this study was to shed a light on the way in which EU-related issues have entered the 2018 Italian electoral campaign on Twitter. Overall, we saw that Italian candidates have a tendency to bring the EU into debate more than candidates running for Parliament in other European countries, except for the UK.»
