First Nations Health and Wellbeing - The Lowitja Journal

ISSN: 2949-8406

First Nations* Health and Wellbeing - The Lowitja Journal is the official journal of the Lowitja Institute, Australia's first community-controlled research institute. It is a community-controlled, international, community member, inter- and multi-disciplinary peer-reviewed open access journal that is dedicated to expanding access to First Nations research. We focus on primary research papers, systematic reviews, and informed short reports and community contributions on all aspects of the science, culture, philosophy and practice regarding health and wellbeing for First Nations communities. All papers must include substantive contributions of First Nations authors and will be peer reviewed by experts in the field of the submitted work. While we are based in Australia and governed by the Australian National Health Leadership Forum, our Editorial Board is international and we welcome papers from First Nations researchers from all over the world, reflecting our global perspective and reach. We recognise that structured knowledge systems of First Nations Peoples, developed over millennia to underpin thriving and healthy communities, offer solutions to the survival and flourishing of our people. Despite targeted settler-colonial policies and practices to dismantle control or eliminate First Nations knowledge, we are resisting colonisation. The resurgence of First Nations knowledge of health and wellbeing is best placed in journals that are led by, and determined by First Nations Peoples and their communities. Specific topic areas include: social and cultural determinants of health, medicine, epidemiology, medical anthropology and sociology, medical history, Indigenous data governance, healthcare delivery, evaluation of programs, maternal and child health, diseases and infections, Closing the Gap and policy directions in health, poverty, racism, disabilities, LGBTQI+, Two Spirit, Takatãpui; climate change, decolonisation, capacity building and training, addictions, alcohol and substance abuse, suicide and self-harm, intimate-partner violence, sexual violence, child protection issues and stolen generations. This is not an exhaustive list, and the editors will consider articles on any issue relating to First Nations wellbeing. Our readers include community members, academics, educators, practitioners/clinicians, policy-makers, decision-makers and researchers with an interest in the health and wellbeing of First Nations communities. *We use the term ‘First Nations’ to refer to any Indigenous or ‘First People's’ inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest of times or before the arrival of colonists. This was chosen by consensus of the representative Australian National Health Leadership Forum Board, and is used with the deepest respect for the autonomy and diversity of nations represented within this broadly inclusive term.

International Journal of Paleopathology

ISSN: 1879-9817
5 Year impact factor: 1.4
Impact factor: 1.2

The Official Journal of the Paleopathology Association Paleopathology is the study and application of methods and techniques for investigating diseases and related conditions from skeletal and soft tissue remains. The International Journal of Paleopathology (IJPP) will publish original and significant articles on human and animal (including hominids) disease, based upon the study of physical remains, including osseous, dental, and preserved soft tissues at a range of methodological levels, from direct observation to molecular, chemical, histological and radiographic analysis. Discussion of ways in which these methods can be applied to the reconstruction of health, disease and life histories in the past is central to the discipline, so the journal would also encourage papers covering interpretive and theoretical issues, and those that place the study of disease at the centre of a bioarchaeological or biocultural approach. Papers dealing with historical evidence relating to disease in the past (rather than history of medicine) will also be published. The journal will also accept significant studies that applied previously developed techniques to new materials, setting the research in the context of current debates on past human and animal health. Membership Benefits: Members of the Paleopathology Association receive online access to the International Journal of Paleopathology for free as a member benefit.

Journal of Anthropological Archaeology

ISSN: 0278-4165
5 Year impact factor: 2.1
Impact factor: 1.8

An innovative, international publication, the Journal of Anthropological Archaeology is devoted to the development of theory and, in a broad sense, methodology for the systematic and rigorous understanding of the organization, operation, and evolution of human societies. The discipline served by the journal is characterized by its goals and approach, not by geographical or temporal bounds. The data utilized or treated range from the earliest archaeological evidence for the emergence of human culture to historically documented societies and the contemporary observations of the ethnographer, ethnoarchaeologist, sociologist, or geographer. These subjects appear in the journal as examples of cultural organization, operation, and evolution, not as specific historical phenomena. The concomitant range of socioeconomic complexity encompasses the simplest human culture, or "proto-culture," as well as the most complex states or empires. Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Journal of Cultural Heritage

ISSN: 1296-2074
5 Year impact factor: 3.2
Impact factor: 3.1

A Multidisciplinary Journal of Science and Technology for Conservation and Awareness. The Journal of Cultural Heritage (JCH) is a multidisciplinary journal of science and technology for studying problems concerning the conservation and awareness of cultural heritage in a wide framework. The main purpose of JCH is to publish original papers which comprise previously unpublished data and present innovative methods concerning all scientific aspects related to heritage science. The journal aims to offer a venue to scientists from different disciplines whose common objective is developing and applying scientific methods to improve the research and knowledge on cultural heritage, in particular in the following fields: • Safeguarding, conservation and exploitation of cultural heritage; • Heritage management and economic analyses; • Computer sciences in cultural heritage; • Sustainable development and cultural heritage; • Impact of climate change on cultural heritage and management of the change. Specifically, papers should deal with the following topics: 1. Analysis, knowledge and conservation of heritage assets, developing: • Novel methodologies or analytical methods for studying the composition, provenance, dating, conservation state; • New materials and methods for the preservation of objects and their assessment; • Evaluation of degradation mechanisms and prediction of possible decay processes. 2. Conservation of Built Heritage (historical buildings, monuments and archaeological sites, modern and industrial buildings): • Analysis of historical materials and construction techniques; • Novel inspection, testing and monitoring techniques; • Novel or multidisciplinary analyses of materials and structures; • Energy efficiency and refurbishment. 3. Innovative studies on the interaction between heritage items and the environment (climate, microclimate, light, pollution, VOC, …), including the impact of climate change, risk assessment of cultural heritage and mitigation. 4. Digital technologies for knowledge, conservation and restoration, in particular: • Multimodal digitization (3D scanning, photogrammetry, multispectral imaging, X-ray, terahertz imaging, …), and data fusion; • Heterogenous data analysis, modelling, interlinking and browsing; • Semantic-aware representation of multi-dimensional digital artefacts; • Virtual, augmented and mixed reality environments; • Digital continuum (from digitization to fabrication); • Long-term preservation of digital assets. 5. Economic studies about the Economy and Management of heritage assets and cultural organizations; articles must use scientific research methods (e.g., econometric and statistical analysis, economic modelling, …) and report innovative research to address economic issues and problems in the field. 6. Museum conservation and technologies for the management and improvement of museum collections. The studies should be multidisciplinary, and ideally interdisciplinary, possibly spanning across some of the categories listed above. The Journal of Cultural Heritage is interested in papers: • Reporting significant advances in scientific methods and techniques; • Presenting multidisciplinary research; • Dealing with issues of wide/global interest; • Review papers dealing with specific topics in which an up-to-date "state of the art" is presented. The articles must be suitable and considered of great interest for a wide audience; thus, it is foreseen that the number of articles dealing with case studies will be reduced, in order to favor original articles. The journal is not interested in papers related to one well established technique applied to shed light on questions of local interest, nor in papers based on subjective observations or descriptive approaches. Reports on restoration/conservation activities should be avoided unless they present a specific technical or scientific novelty. Occasionally, thematic issues are published as ordinary issues or supplements. Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
