The Canadian Race Relations Foundation (CRRF) is pleased to announce a Call for Papers for the 2020 issue of Directions.
Directions, CRRF's open access journal, provides community-based, action-oriented research, commentary, and perspectives on eliminating racism and discrimination. This journal serves as an important piece of our mission to strengthen Canadian values and to build a united Canadian community. Directions offers a forum for important dialogue and debate on race-related issues and practical recommendations for policy development and change.
We will accept previously published articles.
We will continue to accept original book reviews but will also accept previously published submissions.
At the end of the year, the complete volume (containing all approved submissions) will be published online and in print.
We believe that this new approach will continue the tradition of encouraging research and the sharing of best practices.
