Prof. Melanie Adrian, Managing Editor of  the Canadian Journal of Law and Society, announced a new journal initiative today called the Scholar Collaboration Program (SCP).

The SCP will connect emerging scholars from the Global South and marginalized communities with established scholars with publishing expertise in areas such as post-colonial studies, critical legal studies, feminist legal studies, legal anthropology, critical criminology, and literary approaches to law. The goal of this collaborative initiative is for emerging scholars to hone their publishing skills and to polish manuscripts that show promise.

The SCP aims to break down some of the barriers faced by scholars from the Global South and marginalized communities in an effort to work toward equity. The CJLS is proud to offer the SCP as part of our broader work to push for better inclusion in academic publishing.

For more information regarding the application process and eligibility, visit the SCP’s website or contact scp_pca@carleton.ca. The first round of SCP applications are due by March 15, 2021.
