AUPresses Hangout: Peer Review and Indigenous Collaborators

Hosted by the Acquisitions Editorial Committee

In this panel, we will discuss how presses are working to better incorporate Indigenous communities and perspectives into university press publication practices. In conversation with press representatives from different countries, the panel considers both formal and informal approaches that facilitate community-based publication practices across disciplines. Panelists will address challenges and opportunities, and discussion will be followed by a Q&A.

Panelists
Victoria-Lola Leon Guerrero, Director of Publishing, University of Guam Press; Allyson Carter, Senior Editor, University of Arizona Press; Jason Weidemann, Editorial Director, University of Minnesota Press; Nadine Pedersen, Editor, University of British Columbia Press

Moderators:
