Gender on the Ballot Student Blogs

Student Blog Submission (Twitter Post) (1)

Students–would you like to get published? (GOTB) is a weekly, nonpartisan blog, media roundup and newsletter co-founded by the Women & Politics Institute (WPI) at 헤라카지노 and the Barbara Lee Family Foundation in 2019. As we embark on the 119th Congress, a new Administration and other changes in the political landscape, GOTB’s mission is to examine and contextualize gender dynamics in politics and to close the gender gap in political leadership.

Submitting a student blog to GOTB can have several benefits, including: visibility in a high profile online publication, extension of your scholarly and/or practical experiences related to women and politics to a new audience, and an opportunity to share your knowledge and insight with others committed to closing the gender gap in political leadership. You may even receive extra academic credit (this is entirely up to your professors, not GOTB).

Review the guidelines , and submit any questions and/or your blog to the Editor of GOTB at: ongender@gmail.com.
