Gender Lens Africa welcomes strong, original pitches from journalists, writers, researchers, academics, practitioners and storytellers across Africa. We are looking for journalism, analysis and storytelling that brings fresh reporting, evidence and perspectives to the stories shaping the continent.
What to include. A proposed headline or idea, a short summary of the story, why it matters now, the people or communities you expect to speak to, and a brief note about yourself or your previous work.

- Why it matters nowA live debate, a bill, a ruling, a shift.
- Who you will speak toNamed people and communities, not only officials.
- Gender as the lensHow we read the story, not a topic to add on.
