The Journal of Public Space
We produce public knowledge on public space
Our global mission
The Journal of Public Space (ISSN 2206-9658 registered in Italy) is a research project developed by City Space Architecture, a non-profit organization based (Italy), in partnership with UN-Habitat, the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (Kenya). It is the first, academic, interdisciplinary and open access journal entirely dedicated to public space.
As a proper public space, The Journal of Public Space is free, accessible and inclusive, providing a platform for emerging and consolidated researchers; it is intended to foster research, showcase best practices and inform discussion about the more and more important issues related to public spaces in our changing and evolving societies.
It is committed to expand current scholarship by offering a global perspective and providing the opportunity for unheard countries to speak up and to discuss neglected as well as emerging topics that are usually sidelined in mainstream knowledge.
The Journal of Public Space is open to embrace diversity, inconvenient dialogues and untold stories, from multidisciplinary fields and all countries, especially from those that usually do not have voice, overcoming the Western-oriented approach that is leading the current discourse.
It is included in DOAJ – Directory of Open Access Journals and it is in the process to be indexed by Scopus.
It is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License. It is published through an Open Journal Systems as part of the Public Knowledge Project (PKP).
We are a Diamond Open Access Journal, we don't ask for APCs (Article Processing Charges) to our authors. Nobody is paying, neither for publishing nor for reading. Our Editor in Chief and our Editorial Team are not paid, they all volunteer their time to accomplish our mission.
