Pawaatamihk: Journal of Métis Thinkers (PMT) is announcing a Call for Papers for a Special Issue, led by Dr. Lucy Delgado (née Fowler), celebrating the 2024 Mawachihitotaak (Let's Get Together): Métis Studies Conference. This special issue, as all issues of Pawaatamihk, will feature the series sections Scholarly Articles, Community Stories, Poetry, and Visual Art.

This issue will also feature an additional section titled Notes from the Field, meant as a space to share short vignettes reporting from the conference floor as either a presenter or a participant in the gathering.

Pawaatamihk publishes Métis scholars, both established and emerging, as well as Métis community members who have knowledge they want to share. All submissions must include a separate file with a Community Connection statement, outlining your connection to the Métis Nation.

When submitting, please indicate in the file title that the submission is intended for this Special Issue by using the following naming convention:

File name: Mawa2024_Title

Submissions without this designation will be considered for the next regular issue of Pawaatamihk. If submitting to a peer reviewed section (Scholarly Articles, Notes from the Field), please be sure to submit an anonymized version of the document and do not include any identifying information in the title.
