[Announcement from SCRA listserv]

-----Original Message-----
Subject: Call for papers - Special Issue of the Australian Community
Psychologist

Tena kotou i runga i nga ahuatanga o te ra, o te marama o te tau hoki.
Tenei te tono kia tuku pepa mai ki tenei o nga pukapuka hai korerorero
mo nga ahuatanga katoa e pa nei ki a koutou. No reira nau mai, whakatau
mai.


The editors invite new and emerging indigenous researchers to make a
submission to the special issue entitled "Ignored no longer: Emerging
indigenous researchers on indigenous psychologies"

Focus of the special issue
This special issue explores the breadth of indigenous psychologies
through the current work of emerging indigenous researchers. The primary
aims of the issue are to:
*        To showcase the breadth of research currently being conducted by
emerging indigenous researchers on issues of relevance to indigenous
people
*        To profile the diversity of indigenous research
*        To consider the position of emerging indigenous psychologies
within the
broader discipline of Aotearoa, Australia and the wider South Pacific.

Indigenous psychologies recognise that people have a complex and highly
developed understanding of themselves and there is more than one
legitimate psychological approach to understanding the social world, the
place of different people within it and frameworks for conceptualising
social relations.

Preference of submissions:
Preference will be given to submissions from emerging indigenous
researchers engaged in work that is fundamentally action orientated and
focused on real world problems faced by Indigenous communities.

Deadlines and submission process
The deadline for submissions is Friday the 19 August, 2011. The issue
will be published in early 2012. Authors should read the Instruction to
Authors document attached to the call for submission process and
formatting. Further information can be obtained from Mohi Rua on
mrua@waikato.ac.nz.

Please forward on as appropriate.

Na matou noa iho nei,
