Deadline: 24 March 2023
Sarah Sax, Co-Founder of Yarrow Global Consulting, is looking for pitches:
I am looking for contributors to write about gender, health and the environment. Have a story idea? Pitch me at sarahsax.yarrow[at] gmail.com. Rates $150-200 for 1000 word stories. Check out our blog for more examples.
To clarify: I am looking for pitches that connect gender, health, and the environment (not just a pitch on one of those topics). Please give me a sense in the pitch of how you would cover a topic or story, not just the topic itself.
Topics we are always interested in covering: maternal health and the environment, policies addressing LGBTQ health disparities, climate change and gender, decolonizing health systems. We also commission opinion pieces from people actively working in health/environmental fields.
Deadline: It is rolling as in we are always periodically looking for writers. For this round, I'm looking to commission some pieces by March 24th latest.
