Children's Geographies is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes leading edge research and scholarship engaging with and advancing geographical and spatial perspectives on children, young people and families. Although focused upon geographical issues and spatial concepts, the journal welcomes multi- and inter-disciplinary submissions from researchers in areas such as Sociology, Anthropology, Cultural Studies, Economic Development, Education, Psychology, Legal Studies, Social Policy, Political Science, Urban Design and Architecture. Children’s Geographies also provides a forum for policy-makers and practitioners with an interest in these fields. The Editorial Board supports the involvement of early career and international researchers.
- fully peer-reviewed research papers, which make a substantial empirical or theoretical contribution to understandings of geographies of children, young people and families;
- shorter peer-reviewed viewpoint articles, which offer a space for responses to research papers, commentaries on events or concepts, or discussions of policy, legal or social-historical developments relating to children, young people and families;
- book and media reviews, which provide opportunities for authors to reflect upon recent academic publications or contemporary media/cultural discourses pertinent to the Journal aims.
