URBAN RESEARCH AND PRACTICE (URP)–Journal Call for Papers on Urban Policy
Abstract submission deadline: September 7th 2026
Abstract Deadline and instructions: Submit a 300-word abstract by September 7th 2026 to the policy editor: Ivan Tosics: [email protected] together with a brief bio outlining your background and details of any professional or academic affiliation. If your abstract is selected, you will receive a notification by October 7th. After that, the paper should be submitted directly through the journal submission site by November 30 2026.
The Policy Papers section of URP contains articles that focus on new urban policies launched at the international, European, national, regional and local levels. Submissions should articulate the relevance of the policy beyond its immediate context and highlight its potential implications for wider urban debates and policy. We are particularly interested in articles that might be of interest to other practitioners, policy makers and politicians. Policy articles are typically between 3,000 and 5,000 words.
