About the Journal

OPEN ACCESS STATEMENT

The Journal of Creative Practice research provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.

The Journal is an open access journal, which means all its content is freely available without charge to the user or their institution. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author as long as they cite the source.

FOCUS AND SCOPE OF THE JOURNAL

The Journal of Creative Practice research aims to:

  • provide a space where the blurring of different disciplinary, cultural, local, national and global ideas and creative practices can flourish;
  • increase scholarly appreciation of transdiscplinarity, transculturalism and transnationalism in the creative and cultural practice research: arts, media and communication;
  • encourage early career researchers by offering the opportunity to work alongside established researchers in the editorial, peer reviewing and writing processes;
  • share the benefits of transnational collaboration and discussion of issues seen through the lens of creative practice and hybridisation; and
  • foster critical awareness of the dialogic processes produced between globalisation and regionalism.

The Journal of Creative Practice research is also open to reviews and commissioned articles. Appearing twice a year, each issue is organised around a theme involving the connection of ideas, disciplines or cultures, and edited by a small team of editors whose research interests reflect the particular theme. The editorial teams include at least one early career researcher or Higher Degree Research student.
