Literary Submissions
JUST Health accepts health or health justice-focused submissions in the forms of original research, literature reviews, case studies/analyses, policy briefs, opinions, perspective, commentary pieces, and others with a strong health-themed concept.
Please include an abstract that provides an overarching summary of your work. Abstracts may include a short background/needs assessment, objectives, methods, approach, outcomes, reflections/lessons learned, implications, recommendations/future directions.
The final length of a manuscript should be 1-2 pages in length. Submissions that are slightly longer or shorter are acceptable on a case-by-case basis; JUST Health editors will work with you to bring your paper to an acceptable length. Authors must be willing to work conscientiously and efficiently with the editors to make your paper into publishable shape before the production period.
