Articles can be about:
the activities of the Probation Institute.
news about the work of your organisation or project.
reports from special events, seminars, meetings or conferences.
summaries of your own completed research. (Note: we do not publish requests for research participants)
brief reviews of books or research reports that have caught your eye.
thought pieces where you can reflect on an issue that concerns you.
Articles need to be between 500 - 1500 words, well-written, informative and engaging but don’t need to meet the academic standards for a peer-reviewed journal. The editorial touch is ‘light’ and we can help you to develop your article if that is appropriate. If you have an idea for a suitable article, let me know what you have in mind and I can advise you on how to proceed. Please also read our language policy which asks all contributors to avoid stigmatising language.
Probation Quarterly is published with an open access licence (CC BY 4.0). Our open access statement and self-archiving policy for authors can be found here.
