Open call for articles for the 2021 Fall issue of ‘DISCERN, International Journal of Design for Social Change, Sustainable Innovation and Entrepreneurship’. Deadline for submissions is 1st September 2021.
Welcome to the 2021 Spring issue of ‘DISCERN, International Journal of Design for Social Change, Sustainable Innovation and Entrepreneurship’.
It is an objective of this journal to seek submissions not only from academics and scholars but also from postgraduate students and new researchers who are engaged with the broad area of social design and innovation. There are not many opportunities for this group of authors to publish and disseminate their academic outputs through a peer-review process. And to do so, they require mentoring, feedback and assistance. This has been a challenging and time-consuming task and credit is due not only to the respective supervisors of the individual authors but also to the reviewers of this issue who dedicated a considerable time in providing their feedback.
The deadline for the Fall issue of DISCERN is the 1st of September 2021. For the 2021 Fall issue of DISCERN we encourage submissions that relate to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), although all other submissions are welcome too.
