Marcie Bianco, Editor at Stanford Social Innovation Review, is looking for pitches:
I am still looking to commission pitches for the What's Next section of SSIR. What's Next articles describe a new (usually less than two years old), promising, but not yet proven, solution to an important social, environmental, or organizational problem. Right now, I am particularly looking for pitches on non-US-based innovations but will not exclude US-based ones from consideration. Length: ~800 words. Pay: $600.
At this point, I am specifically seeking What's Next pitches — WN articles are reported stories on *new* innovations/programs/entities (est. 2022 - present; nothing before). Here are our submission guidelines; my email is within: https://ssir.org/about/submission_guidelines.
