    Call for contributions: Journal Issue 10: Gender, media freedom and
access to information - abstracts by 27 July
21 July 2011




The Gender and Media Diversity Centre (GMDC) seeks proposals for
contributions to its tenth journal that will enhance the development and
sharing of knowledge, best practices and debate around media diversity, as
well as promote probing, analytical and contextual journalism. The Gender
and Media Diversity Journal (GMDJ) is the biennial journal of the GMDC, a
physical and virtual resource centre based in Southern Africa, managed by
Gender Links with linkages in Africa and across the globe.

The journal is an intellectual but not academic journal. It provides
up-to-date and cutting edge information on media diversity in Southern
Africa and the space for the dissemination of research findings and
projects; case studies; campaigns; policy developments; and opinion and
debate on media practice in the region. Each journal covers latest
developments but also focuses on a different thematic area identified in
consultation with the GMDC advisory group. *
*

The tenth edition of the GMDJ will focus on the topic of *“**Gender, media
freedom and access to information.”* The theme is mainly informed by the
2011 Windhoek +20 celebrations of the Windhoek Declaration on Promoting
Independent and Pluralistic Media that was adopted in 1991 to improve media
freedom in Africa. The May 2011 celebrations acknowledged the significance
of the declaration in improving media freedom in Africa. Media activists are
now turning their attention to another freedom of expression issue, access
to information.
