Call for Papers: Environmental and Climate Justice: Intersecting Rights of Humans and the Natural World
The Journal of Human Rights and Social Work is now inviting manuscript contributions for the upcoming special issue Environmental and Climate Justice: Intersecting Rights of Humans and the Natural World. Despite the increasing risk associated with climate change, little attention has been given in social work literature on including local, community, and systemic environmental issues, and even less has focused on connections between human rights, nature, and the ecology.
We welcome submissions based on Indigenous practices, cultural models, community responses, and interdisciplinary interventions/research.
We are interested in submissions that address the multifaceted issues that cross environmental and social justice, explore human rights concerns and the rights of nature, and engage social work perspectives. We seek conceptual, empirical, and personal reflections for practice or teaching.
Guest Editors: Cathryne L. Schmitz, Lacey M. Sloan
Submission Deadline: May 15, 2024
