Script Health is commissioning pitches from experienced writers who can deliver sharp, informed, and grounded reporting on LGBTQ2S+ health, wellness, and sexuality. This is a strong opportunity for writers in Kenya searching for high-paying online writing jobs, especially those looking to expand into global health writing, LGBTQ writing jobs, and wellness journalism gigs.
Script Health is a newly launched, bilingual publication built to serve queer and trans communities with high-quality, accessible, and culturally competent health information. Their editorial mission is unapologetic: they aim to cover LGBTQ2S+ health at a time when rights and access are under increasing pressure worldwide.
Writers can pitch across a broad spectrum of topics—transition care, sex and pleasure, aging, disability, substance use, HIV, healthcare policy, and more. They value seriousness where necessary, but they welcome humour, irreverence, and bold storytelling. Writers from outside Canada are fully welcome.
This is a strong fit for Kenyan writers who excel at reported features, Q&As, health explainers, queer culture essays, and service journalism.
What They’re Looking For:
- Sharp, well-researched reported stories
- Q&As with health experts, activists, or community voices
- Essays centered on queer and trans health experiences
- Ideas exploring policy, healthcare access, stigma, or lived realities
- Pieces with nuance, humanity, and editorial precision
