Call for Papers—The Peace Journalist magazine
The Peace Journalist magazine is seeking submissions for
our October, 2017 edition. The Peace Journalist is a semi-annual publication
(print and .pdf) of the Center for Global Peace Journalism at Park University
in Parkville, Missouri. The Peace Journalist is dedicated to disseminating news
and information for and about teachers, students, and practitioners of peace
and conflict sensitive journalism.
Submissions are welcome from all. For the next edition of
The Peace Journalist, we are seeking short submissions (300-550 words)
detailing peace journalism projects, classes, proposals, academic works in the
field, etc. We also welcome longer submissions (800-1200 words) about peace or
conflict sensitive journalism projects or program.
Please submit your article via email to
steve.youngblood@park.edu. Also send a 2-3 sentence biography of the author, as
well as a small head and shoulders photo of the author. In addition, please
submit photos and graphics that could accompany your article.s, as well as
academic works from the field. The Peace Journalist will not run general
articles about peace initiatives or projects, but rather seeks only articles
with a strong peace media/peace journalism/conflict sensitive journalism angle.
The magazine submission deadline is September 4. However,
given the limited space available, it’s advisable to submit your article early.

Finally, the peace journalism community is still coming
together to support one of our own—Uganda’s peace journalist extraordinaire
Gloria Laker, who urgently needs cataract surgery to avoid
going blind. Please
help if you can, or at least, share this link with those who might be able to
support her:
Thank you.
