Northern Public Affairs is a new magazine for public policy debate in Northern Canada. The magazine’s mandate responds to a need to create space for informed policy debate on topics most relevant to Northerners. Published three times a year (Spring, Fall, and Winter), Northern Public Affairs features policy-relevant articles written by, and for, our audience of academics, commentators, current and former politicians, business leaders, public servants and engaged Northerners.
The editors of Northern Public Affairs are pleased to invite submissions about research in Northern Canada for publication in NPA Magazine. They are seeking feature length articles (1000-1500 words) and short research briefs (250 words) on any of the following topics:
• The policy relevance of research objectives and/or findings
• Opportunities and challenges of Northern research
• Northern science policy
• Methodological and ethical issues
• Notable experiences working in Northern Canada
The deadline for submitting research briefs is May 15, 2012 for publication in the June issue. They are also accepting feature-length articles for future issues of the magazine.
