The Review of Women’s Studies (RWS), a refereed journal published by the University of the Philippines Center for Women’s and Gender Studies (UPCWGS), invites submissions for a special issue on the theme “Gender, Media, and Development.”

This special issue seeks to critically engage with contemporary discussions, tensions, and trajectories in the following areas:

• Gendered media representations, practices, and technologies; and
• Feminist and queer activists’ reimagining and remaking of digital media as tools for resistance, advocacy, and transformative social change.

We encourage submissions that tackle experiences from the Philippines from the perspectives of feminist and queer media studies as well as feminist and queer digital activism.

Deadline: 31 August 2025
