The primary aims of the journal are to analyze and assess past and present urban development and management as a reflection of effective, ineffective and non-existent planning policies; and the promotion of the implementation of appropriate urban policies in both the developed and the developing world.

Topics covered include: urban adaptation to climate change; gentrification and housing; homelessness and welfare services; urban management; public-private sector cooperation; development and planning problems; urban regeneration; neighborhood conservation and urban design; immigration and international labor migration; urban politics; urban theory; urban governance; smart cities and regions; infrastructure; livability and quality of life; greening; and the complexities of creating sustainable cities.

Every year, we also publish a handful of Viewpoints. These are articles that are shorter in nature, summative in their literature review, and offer a particular argument that could potentially generate debates among scholars and practitioners.

Each volume also features one or more City Profiles. Coverage includes a brief description of the city's historical development, an account of contemporary conditions, problems or issues, and a critical review of recent or current policy, planning or management responses.

Full details of Cities' accepted manuscript types, topics, word limits and editorial policies, as well as topics we do not accept, can be found in the http://www.journals.elsevier.com/cities/policies-and-guidelines/cities-acceptance-policy-guidelines/Cities Acceptance Policy on the journal's website.

Cities & Health provides an innovative new international platform for consolidating research and know-how for city development to support human health. The journal is committed to developing a shared evidence base, encouraging better cross-disciplinary understanding and supporting critical trans-disciplinary practices. The journal will publish papers and commentary from researchers and practitioners working to build a new wisdom for supporting healthier cities.

Cities & Health explores the drivers of urban change through the lenses of health and health equity. From climate change to the digital city, from city leadership to community resilience, cities all over the world are in transition. The journal will cover a wide range of topics but public health needs to be at the heart of the discourse.

Cities & Health promotes greater discourse between the many disparate professions and disciplines involved. The journal invites contributions from a broad range of disciplines, including, but not limited to:

• built environment, including: urban design, planning, architecture, transport, landscape and city governance;
• public health, including: epidemiology, health economy, public health advocacy and community health;
• experts in many other relevant fields, such as psychology, human behaviour, geography, environmental resources, cultural studies, communications and the arts.  

Building impact through City Know-how

Through practitioner involvement, Cities & Health will develop a close relationship with cities, allowing researchers to test new knowledge for real world impact and accelerate the dissemination of their findings. Unique to this journal authors will be asked to provide a one page lay summary of their papers specifically to illustrate its relevance for the practitioner community and to inform city authorities. A forum of city leaders and practitioners who are already fostering change will review these lay summaries. We will support authors with this process, which is aimed at increasing real world impact. These City Know-how pages, with associated commentary, will be widely circulated.

Cities increasingly want to act as laboratories for revealing problems and testing solutions. Cities & Health is an invitation to forge a new placed-based trans-disciplinary alliance for health; an alliance involving theorists, researchers, educators and practitioners.

Peer Review Statement

All Research Articles are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by at least two, independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double blind. 

Citizen Science: Theory and Practice is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal published by Ubiquity Press on behalf of the Citizen Science Association. The journal focuses on advancing the global field of citizen science by providing a venue for citizen science researchers and practitioners to share best practices in conceiving, developing, implementing, evaluating, and sustaining projects that facilitate public participation in scientific endeavors in any discipline. Authors include scientists, educators, community organizers, information technologists, conservation biologists, evaluators, land-use planners, and more. Readers include anyone interested in understanding and improving practice of the growing citizen science field. As an open-access journal no fees are charged to view any part of the journal, which is supported by nominal author’s fees.

The journal accepts manuscripts in several categories: Research articles, review and synthesis articles, case studies, methods papers, meeting reports, and essays. We are flexible with these categories, however, as we strive to meet the needs of the citizen science community of practice. We do maintain a rigorous peer-review system that includes a double-blind option. In the future, we plan to experiment with varied types of publications including Registered Reports and pre-publication peer review. The journal publishes supplemental information.

Editor's Choice' Articles Available for FREE Download Citizenship Studies publishes internationally recognised scholarly work on contemporary issues in citizenship, human rights and democratic processes from an interdisciplinary perspective covering the fields of politics, sociology, history and cultural studies. It seeks to lead an international debate on the academic analysis of citizenship, and also aims to cross the division between internal and academic and external public debate. The journal focuses on debates that move beyond conventional notions of citizenship, and treats citizenship as a strategic concept that is central in the analysis of identity, participation, empowerment, human rights and the public interest. Citizenship is analysed in the context of contemporary processes involving globalisation, theories of international relations, changes to the state and political communities, multiculturalism, gender, indigenous peoples and national reconciliation, equity, social and public policy, welfare, and the reorganisation of public management. As a theoretically basic concept, citizenship provides new tools for formulating problems and providing practical analysis and advice in these fields. The journal seeks to publish papers that provide links between theory, institutions such as markets and religions, and the analysis of substantive issues. Peer Review All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, basaed on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.
