The Canadian Race Relations Foundation (CRRF) is pleased to announce a Call for Papers for the 2019 issue of Directions.
Directions, a peer-reviewed publication, 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.
For 2019, we have changed the way in which we will share your articles.
Articles will be peer-reviewed as soon as possible. Once approved they will be translated and published immediately on our website.
We will also 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 (by December 2019), 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.
