This dataset stems from the Interest Representation during the Coronavirus Crisis (InterCov) Project, which was initiated in April 2020 with the aim to assess the effects of Covid-19 on interest representation and political advocacy. The two-wave cross-country survey was conducted in summer 2020 and 2021 in a set of European polities (Austria, Denmark, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the European Union). The dataset includes items on lobbying mobilisation, strategies, access, and influence after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, and other measures of organisational factors. We discuss the dataset and its underlying research design choices in the accompanying forum article titled "Understanding Lobbying Dynamics through Survey Research: An Introduction to the InterCov Dataset" in European Union Politics (available open access, DOI: 10.1177/14651165241274046).
