Gender & Development journal is currently inviting papers on Gender and Humanitarian Work for its July 2012 issue. The journal invites humanitarian and development policymakers and practitioners, and researchers, to share their views in this issue of the journal.
Gender & Development is an international journal that is published for Oxfam GB. Since its beginning in 1993, this journal has offered its support for decent and sustainable development and gender equality. The journal is presently read in more than 90 countries across the world. A large number of development practitioners, policy-makers and academics read the journal to enrich their knowledge about various issues related to gender and development.
About Papers
All articles need to be based on first-hand experience, case studies, or research on-the-ground in particular country contexts. Contributions from practitioners with first-hand experience are particularly welcome. You need not to worry if you think you are not a writer for a journal or have never written for publication before – you will be helped with style and language, and get support to develop your article.
More about the Journal
Gender & Development aims to debate best practice and new ideas, and to make the links between theoretical and practical gender and development work. Insights from development initiatives across the world are shared and analysed, and lessons identified. Innovative theoretical concepts are explored by key academic writers, and the uses of these concepts for policy and practice are explored. Academically rigorous material is presented in clear English, making it accessible to the widest possible readership.
Each issue focuses on a cutting-edge theme. An overview is followed by a range of articles from researchers, policy-makers, and practitioners, an up-to-date resources section, book reviews on the latest publications in the gender and development field, and a unique section on views, events, and debates, providing an overview of current perspectives, events, and trends in international gender equality and women’s rights.
Last date for submitting the paragraph outlining the proposed idea for an article is October 21, 2011.
