Announcing a new feminist journal: Women In and Beyond the Global, WIBG

Women In and Beyond the Global, WIBG, a peer-reviewed online journal

Women In and Beyond the Global, WIBG, is an open access feminist project that analyzes and works to change the status and conditions of women in global households, prisons, and cities. WIBG involves activists, academics, information specialists and others. WIBG has established a blog site, www.womeninandbeyond.org, and, in collaboration with the Center for Transnational Women’s Issues, a monthly seminar. We are pleased to announce our newest project, a new peer reviewed, open access online, international feminist journal: Women In and Beyond the Global, WIBG.

WIBG will publish interdisciplinary analyses, creative expressions, reports from the field, interviews, and artworks. The journal will create a common space for activists, academics, and information specialists to share their work and views, to interact with one another, and to change, in whatever way, the world.

WIBG intends to support and encourage publication around the globe. Our current Editorial Committee includes the following: Kelly Cooper, Cuernavaca, Mexico; Cheryl Deutsch, Mumbai, India; Cathy Eisenhower, Washington, DC, U.S.A.; Dan Moshenberg, Washington, DC, USA; Siphokazi Mthathi, Cape Town, South Africa; Rachel Riedner, Washington, DC, USA. We invite others to apply to become members of the Editorial Committee.

On February 1, we will circulate the call for papers for our first issue. Stay tuned.
