Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to make a submission to this journal. Please check our Announcements page for the latest information on our most current call for submissions. 2-Spirited, Indigi-queer and Transgender authors will be given priority in the publication process, but allies are also welcome to submit as long as their work falls within the journal mandate. All submissions will be assessed by an editor to determine whether they fit within the the parameters of the current call for submissions. Those considered to be a good fit will be subject to anonymized peer review before determining whether their work will be accepted for publication.

Before making a submission, authors are responsible for obtaining permission to publish any material included with the submission, such as photos and datasets. All authors identified on the submission must consent to be identified as an author. Where appropriate, research should be approved by an appropriate ethics committee in accordance with the legal requirements of the study's country, province, council or other relevant governing body. Please be prepared to present ethics approval upon the request of the editorial staff.

Before submitting, please ensure that the study design and research argument are structured and articulated properly. The title should be concise and the abstract should be able to stand independently. Once satisfied that your submission meets this standard, follow the checklist below to prepare your submission. Please do not hesitate to contact the editorial staff with any questions concerning these topics.
