The STRATI Journal of Gender and Development is an open access and peer-reviewed international journal and welcomes original papers from academicians, researchers and practitioners alike, and particularly encourages submissions that draw on policy-oriented theoretical and empirical research focusing on gender equality and the empowerment of women, women participation in the economy, leadership and education, maternal health care services, girls education, gender and human development, women’s rights, gender and poverty, gender differences, gender identity, gender role and gender sensitization.
The papers should generally be 6000-8000 words with abstract of not more than 200 words, though more substantial papers will be considered. The contributions to STRATI Journal of Gender and Development reflect the interdisciplinary emphasis, which is fundamental to the journal. The papers will be double-blind refereed using an appropriate cross-section of reviewers drawn from the target interests. The journal aims for a turn-around time of three months from submission to publication to ensure rapid dissemination and dynamic discussion of ideas and results. The Editor, therefore, welcomes early contact prior to submission of manuscripts with, for example, an abstract. Book reviews are also included.
The STRATI Journal of Gender and Development will be of interest to academicians, researchers and practitioners working in interdisciplinary fields of history, anthropology, economics, sociology, psychology and psychoanalysis, policy and decision makers in national and local government and relevant agencies, and non-governmental organizations. The Editorial Board provides a unique mix of expertise from both the academic community and a full range of interested parties.
