CFP: Transformations: A Journal of Advocacy, Research, and Dialogue
Submit work to: transformations@gfp.ngo
Deadline for submissions: January 30, 2024, for Volume 1 Issue 3 (April 2024)
Calling Advocates and Academics Working for Peace, Justice, and a Better World
Transformations works from the premise that everyone has an important world view, that everyone possesses valuable insights and strategies on the most pressing global issues and that by bringing these all together, in dialogue, in one publication, new knowledges and practices can be created. While the work of academics is often found in journals, those very individuals who do the work on the ground are not often given a platform to share their expertise, to share the powerful insights of stories of their communities. We hope by bringing researchers and Practitioners voices together to fill that void.
We want Transformations to amplify the too often unheard voices of local change makers who are using non-violent strategies to reinvent public spheres, marked by conflict, into peaceful civic spaces premised on tolerance and inclusion. As well as to have their experiences and insights influence the direction of new research.
To this end, Transformations is reaching out to advocates, researchers, peacemakers, organizational leaders, public intellectuals, policy makers and community members to share implications of their work.
And we are also actively seeking submissions that take full advantage of written, social, and media platforms:
- Photojournalist Essays
- Extended Audio Documentaries
- Personal Testimonies
- Academic Essays
- Graphic Novels
- Short Videos
