Call for Papers on Gender Economics

Economics through a gender lens

CFPs Invitation

This Collection invites original research that advances the field of gender economics from theoretical, empirical, or policy-oriented perspectives. We welcome contributions examining how public policies—such as taxation, welfare, investment, and public services—affect gender equality, as well as studies addressing inclusive economic growth, social equity, and sustainable development. Research on undervalued or unmeasured economic activities, including unpaid care and domestic work, is particularly encouraged. Papers exploring gender representation across industries, labour regulations, income distribution, and the gendered division of labour are also highly relevant. By bringing together diverse approaches and methodologies, this Collection aims to deepen understanding of gendered economic processes and to inform policies that foster more inclusive, resilient, and equitable economies.
