Gender, Work & Organization seeks proposals for special issues to be published in 2026 and beyond. The journal is particularly interested in work that addresses urgent and underexplored questions at the intersection of gender, work, and organization, especially proposals that engage critically with feminist theory and bring diverse perspectives into conversation. Proposals from organizers of the GWO 2025 Conference are especially welcome, as are suggestions from emerging scholarly collaborations presenting innovative and boundary-pushing research aligned with the journal's mission.
The journal is seeking special issues that demonstrate strong editorial collaboration and clear strategies for ensuring inclusivity throughout the publication process, including in authorship, peer review, and the mentoring of early-career scholars. Proposals should include the issue title and theme, a clear rationale for the contribution to the field, a diverse editorial team with relevant experience, a realistic timeline, and a plan for outreach and promotion.
