    SEE THE FULL CALL ON THE BROADCAST EDUCATION ASSOCIATION (BEA) WEBSITE

    The Journal of Radio and Audio Media (JRAM), the world's premier radio research journal, is published semi-annually by the Broadcast Education Association. JRAM is dedicated to radio research and the new technology redefining radio's traditional use.

    By producing this bilingual issue-albeit in colonial languages-the editors intend to contribute to a dialogue between research from the Anglophone and Francophone academic worlds and to broaden knowledge about radio research. In doing so, they seek to promote a non-western-centric epistemology of media research in Africa.

    Submission Deadlines
    Scholars interested in submitting an article for the special issue should send an extended abstract or draft paper to Dr. Emma Heywood at e.heywood@sheffield.ac.uk for review by June 1, 2024. Feedback and an invitation to submit will be provided by June 21, 2024. All final papers will undergo a blind peer-reviewed process for final publication and must be submitted to JRAM by August 1, 2024. Scholars who miss the initial deadline should contact Dr. Emma Heywood to inquire about submitting directly to the journal's submission site for peer review by the final deadline.

    Extended abstracts due: June 1, 2024
    Final paper due: August 1, 2024
    The special issue is scheduled for publication in Spring 2025
