The British Journal of Social Work is accepting submissions for a special international edition, written by and focusing on people with lived experience of promoting social justice and challenging power imbalances in different spheres of life (not just ‘mental health’). The kind of submissions we welcome include:
Reflections on community activism and influence on practice and policy in your country/locality
Academic papers of research you have conducted
Reflections and evaluations on innovative user led approaches to social work research, education and practice
Personal narratives and insights in to using and engaging with social work services
Personal narratives and insights into lived experiences relevant to social work.
Formats may include academic papers, opinion pieces, narratives, artwork and poems. All lead authors will be people with lived experiences relevant to social work, where social work is defined as part of a broader social justice movement to challenge power imbalances and ensure the voice of the marginalised is heard.
