Diverse Voices in Conservation
Conservation Biology: Call for Special Section Papers
Abstracts for papers for a planned special section in Conservation Biology entitled "Diversifying Voices in Conservation". We have extended the deadline to include more articles. Please submit abstracts by April 2nd.
On behalf of my collaborators Josh Drew, Rebecca Lewison, George Holmes, and Sophia Winkler-Schor, we are looking to pull together a special issue of Conservation Biology that will center research from diverse voices, research that highlights diversity (broadly defined) in conservation, and submissions that may be centered in non-western epistemologies. We recognize that Conservation Biology has a long history of centering specific, Colonial, views, and that centering has led to the exclusion of people with multiple identities or lived experiences. In this special issue we hope to provide an opportunity to foreground research that centers Indigenous voices, supports LGTBQIA+ researchers, highlights work in the Global South, and in general amplifies voices that have been historically marginalized in Conservation.
We also recognize that the lack of diversity also resides in the review process, and therefore if you would be interested in serving as a reviewer, particularly if you have experience in non-western epistemologies, trans-disciplinary research, or (lived) experience with research in the Global South, we would love your support and help in this project.
If you are interested in contributing to this special section, submit an abstract by email (jad...@esf.edu) for consideration by April 2nd. We anticipate a manuscript deadline of August 2023.
Abstract Requirements
Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words and include information on the tentative title and article type. Abstracts should clearly indicate (1) the paper's alignment with the aims and scope of Conservation Biology and the focus of the special section, (2) the data-collection and analysis methods (when applicable), if applicable evidence that this work was done in an ethical fashion (including US Institutional Review Board approval or non-US equivalent) and in consultation with any associated communities (e.g., informed consent was given), and (4) the paper’s contributions to conservation policy or practice.
Conservation Biology is a hybrid journal. Open-access charges apply for those choosing this option. Standard page charges can be reduced or waived if there is financial need. For additional advice and author instructions and guidelines, contact guest editors Joshua Drew (jad...@esf.edu), Rebecca Lewison (rlew...@sdsu.edu), George Holmes (G.Ho...@leeds.ac.uk), Sophia Winkler-Schor (winkle...@wisc.edu)
