Publishing is a vital part of emerging scholar\u2019s academic work. However, the pathway to publishing is often not equal for underrepresented scholars due to inequities in available mentorship, resources and training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Providing an inclusive platform for equity, diversity and inclusion in academia and academic publishing is a key goal for the Canadian Journal of Law and Society\/La Revue Canadienne Droit et Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 (CJLS\/RCDS)’s<\/a> Managing Editor, Professor Melanie Adrian<\/a>, Carleton Chair in Teaching Innovation and founder of Carleton\u2019s Scholars at Risk program. To help address the time-intensive and often under prioritized mentorship needs of scholars from underrepresented communities, CJLS launched the SSRHC funded Scholar Collaboration Program\/Le Programme de collaboration acad\u00e9mique (SCP\/PCA) in January 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SCP provides collaborative opportunities for underrepresented scholars in the field of socio-legal studies. The program pairs exceptional emerging scholars with mentors experienced in academic publishing and intends to support these emerging scholars as they prepare manuscripts to be submitted to the CJLS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the process of creating such a program, CJLS collaborated with \u00c7a\u011flar D\u00f6lek<\/a>, an emerging scholar from Turkey, current Department of Law and Legal Studies contract instructor, and graduate of Carleton University\u2019s PhD in Sociology. Through a combination of digital ethnography of internationally renowned journals mentorship program, Dr. D\u00f6lek evaluated and reported on how scholar mentorship programs are run to help inform the SCP program\u2019s approach to inclusive mentorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By employing a research-based approach to creating the SCP, CJLS has united the goals of promoting equitable publishing opportunities with practical research backed solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
