Call for Articles and Other Contributions


The International Journal of Public Participation is preparing its inaugural issue for publication in November 2006.
 
The IJP2 is a peer-reviewed, on-line, multi-disciplinary forum for the exchange of information among researchers, practitioners, decision-makers, and citizens about public participation and its impact around the world.

The IJP2 will publish reports, analyses, and proposals that connect public participation with decision-making regarding matters of policy, planning, or development; discussions of particular issues, events, cases, processes, or tools relevant to the effective practice of public participation; commentary on the deeper questions and assumptions underpinning current theoretical and practical approaches to public participation; and interviews, book reviews, and other forms of communication concerning matters of importance for the theory or practice of public participation.

For the inaugural issue, IJP2 is especially interested in contributions that:

place public participation in the context of the various challenges currently facing societies and their governments around the world;

address common problems or questions in the practice of public participation; and

offer a comparative or international perspective on the theory and practice of public participation.

If you are interested in submitting or proposing a contribution, please contact Michael Briand, Editor-in-Chief, at mkbriand@internetconet.net.


The IJP2 is published by the International Association for Public Participation (http://www.iap2.org)
