Addressing the Overlooked Intersections of Climate, Disaster, and Gender
The upcoming special issue of Progress in Disaster Science (published by Elsevier) presents an important opportunity for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to investigate the intersections of climate change, disaster risk, and gender—an area often studied in isolation. This call for papers emphasizes the need to understand how gendered experiences shape vulnerability and resilience in the face of climate-induced disasters.
As climate crises intensify and disasters grow more frequent, understanding the gendered dimensions of risk, recovery, and adaptation becomes essential for effective and equitable policy development and implementation.
Topics of Interest
The special issue welcomes a wide range of submissions that explore innovative, theoretical, and practical perspectives. Papers may focus on:
- Risk and resilience communication within cultural sectors such as art, music, heritage, and journalism
- Gendered impact assessments in both disaster response and climate change adaptation
- Frameworks, indicators, and measurement tools to assess intersectional vulnerabilities
- Case studies, community-based narratives, and policy critiques that spotlight gender-inclusive approaches to disaster management
Submission Guidelines
- Deadline for submissions: 21 November 2025
- Submissions must be made through the Elsevier submission portal
- All manuscripts will be peer-reviewed according to Progress in Disaster Science guidelines
The journal encourages contributions from a wide range of disciplines including sociology, public health, urban planning, gender studies, media, and environmental science.
