Summary/Abstract: This paper investigates the relationship between gender differences and whistleblowing within the European Union, with a focus on how gendered dynamics influence individuals’ willingness to report unethical behavior. The study analyzes data from the Special Eurobarometer 548, which offers valuable insights into public attitudes toward reporting mechanisms across member states. By examining this data alongside gendered perspectives, the paper aims to uncover the factors that shape whistleblowing decisions, including the impact of social and cultural influences, and how these factors may vary between men and women. Ultimately, the paper aspires to contribute to the broader discourse on enhancing public integrity.
