Calling All Trainees and recent graduates
 
 
invites you to 
submit a short paper for publication 
in response to the following three questions: 
 
  • How do papers I read in Murmurations affect what I do in my practice?
  • How am I engaging with and elaborating on the provocations, theories or practices within those papers?
  • How am I using these papers to enable and support my contribution to decolonising practice as a professional and as a community member? 
GUIDANCE
  • Focus on one or two papers from Murmurations: Journal of Transformative Systemic Practice
  • Make sure your paper responds to the questions above. 
  • Write something that interests you and that will interest us, your readers. 
  • Please sound like you and show yourself. 
  • Read Guidance for Contributors and Reviewers here: https://murmurations.cloud/index.php/pub/guidelines
  • Create your own title. 
  • Start with a 100 word synopsis of the paper. 
  • Work out a clear structure for the paper. 
  • Papers will be 1000-1500 words long. 
  • Provide the full reference for the paper(s) you have chosen.
  • Submit your paper through the website. 
  • The deadline is 15th April 2026 but earlier submissions are encouraged
  • You will experience the process of article submission, peer review, feedback to support the development of your paper towards publication. 
  • If you are part of a course, consider small groups of 3 or 4 to feedback on each other’s papers before submitting. 
We’re hoping to devote a whole issue to a collection of these papers.
 
Good luck!
