Inviting participants to a study on the Impact of Anti-Hijab Laws on Muslim Women

Are you a Muslim woman living in France, the United Kingdom, United States, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Germany, Canada, or the Netherlands?

A scholar of Islamophobia at Michigan State University is conducting a study to understand how anti-hijab laws affect the lives of Muslim women, focusing on perceptions of discrimination, feelings of safety, and sense of belonging and inclusion.

If you're interested in participating in a brief 30 minute interview, please answer a few short questions and provide your contact information via the link below and you will be contacted to schedule a one-on-one interview at your convenience.

Your answers will remain confidential and will be anonymized in any research report that stems from these interviews.

Your participation will contribute to valuable research aimed at addressing the impacts of these laws on Muslim women's lives. Thank you for your consideration!
