The African Journal of Gender and Religion (AJGR) is an online, double-blind peer reviewed, open access journal for the transdisciplinary study of gender and religion in Africa. The AJGR is a bi-annual publication housed in The Desmond Tutu Centre for Religion and Social Justice at the University of the Western Cape. The AJGR is an accredited publication of the South African Department of Higher Education and Training.
The journal seeks to explore the ways in which power operates in gendered relationships and the ways in which this power is determined and promoted by religious and cultural norms. We welcome submissions which draw on a variety of resources available within feminist, queer and masculinity studies as they intersect with religion and culture. Authors are invited to submit inter-disciplinary articles that explore phenomena and trends emerging from the intersections of religion, theology, gender and sexuality. We are an African journal and seek to encourage authors to reflect on Africa as context, concept, and theory. We are equally welcoming of international contributions engaging with a variety of social and geographic contexts.
We are accepting submissions on a continuous basis and prospective authors are invited to submit full articles via the online submission portal at https://journals.uj.ac.za/index.php/ajgr/about/submissions.
Please consult the author guidelines and checklist prior to submission.
The AJGR is an open access journal and provides immediate access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. Previous volumes of the journal can be accessed freely online at https://journals.uj.ac.za/index.php/ajgr/index.
