We invite submissions for a special issue of /Journalism /which aims to bring together recent research on how journalists, newsrooms and journalist organizations, by working across professional, cultural and geographical boundaries can improve safety for journalists. Understanding the roles that self-reliance and solidarity among journalists, individually, collectively and structurally, can play in ensuring safety of journalists is key to identifying

the possibilities and potentials of the emergent practice of 'radical sharing' of risk as well as information, among journalists. The full call for papers can be found here <https://journals.sagepub.com/pb-assets/CFP_%20Journalism%20Solidarity%2024%20July-1690385842.pdf>.

We are keen to include papers on, but not only limited to, the following topics:

· Investigations on experiences from journalistic cooperation projects creating a consensus that 'killing the journalist will not kill the story'.

· Investigations into efficacies and efficiencies of approaching safety measures collectively, internationally and cross-continentally.

· Investigations into efforts to promote the safety of journalists in authoritarian "democracies" through cross-border collaborative platforms, organisations and interventions.

· Measuring the effects of collaborative campaigns and other collective actions to improve the safety of journalists.

· Knowledge about and practice of fostering a future culture of safety through
international collaborations in journalism education.

· Investigations on economic, professional and political implications of
collaborative journalistic work.

· Different approaches to theorising the safety for journalists based on crossborder solidarity.

· Investigations on local and cross-border journalistic collaborative work in,
between, and among countries both in the Global South and North.

· Other topics that might be relevant within the broad framework of solidarity and self-reliance for safety among journalists will also be given due connsideration by the editors for the forthcoming special issue.

Extended abstracts (500-800 words), accompanied by a 100-150-word author bio, should be sent to the guest editors at (safetyofjournalists /at/ oslomet.no) <mailto:(safetyofjournalists /at/ oslomet.no)> by October 20, 2023.

Upon selection, scholars will be invited to submit full papers. We welcome research articles that can be both empirical and conceptual. These should not be more than 8,000 words in length, including references. All submissions are subject to full blind peer-review, in accordance with the peer-review procedure of /Journalism/. Manuscripts will be submitted through the journal's ScholarOne website. Authors must indicate that they wish to have their manuscript considered for this Special Issue.
