Gender & Development

Editor: Caroline Sweetman

Gender & Development is the only journal published to focus specifically on international gender and development issues, and to explore the connections between gender and development initiatives, and feminist perspectives.

Since 1993, Gender & Development has promoted and supported dignified, decent and sustainable development founded on equality between women and men. The journal currently has a readership in over 90 countries, and has become essential reading for development practitioners, policy-makers and academics.

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.
