They are looking for freelance pitches on issues that affect women in the US, and
globally. Their guidelines say, “While we may
commission a story if it is especially intriguing, for the most part, we are
looking for nuanced pitches around timely moments. In the latter half of 2020,
that means we are looking for coronavirus or public health-related stories,
stories about racial and social justice and in the US, politics and
election-related pitches. We are also always looking at stories around gender
based violence, trafficking, the climate crisis and reproductive
healthcare.
We are primarily interested in stories that will raise awareness and/or could
spur accountability.
But it’s not enough for a story source or character to be a woman. What is the
clear angle centred around women? ...
If your reporting has relevant data elements or an investigative element, that
is a plus.
We are not looking
for profiles, essays, breaking news, or op-eds.” They pay competitive rates.
See guidelines for further details of what they want in a 500-word pitch.
