The Design Journal is a community of scholars committed to integrity and transparency, safeguarding ethical values, and developing ways of working that enable inclusivity to flourish in all our work. Our efforts are towards leadership and benchmarking best practices in the international design research community. For these reasons, we are establishing a College of Reviewers to enhance the peer review system by developing mentoring opportunities and providing reviewers with up-to-date knowledge and resources needed to conduct consistent, fair, and high-quality peer reviews. The College of Reviewers (CoR) is a group of selected academic reviewers drawn from various institutions and career experiences, from Early Career Researchers to senior academics. All reviewers are active design academics and researchers. The CoR works closely with the Editorial Board, which oversees the peer review process and helps ensure quality.
