The Journal of Praxis in Higher Education is a fully online, open access journal dedicated to high quality research on, or related to, praxis within higher education teaching, learning, research, and activities aimed at impact on wider society (e.g., policy influence, activist research, or capacity building). In an era characterised by internationalisation, increasing accountability, strong ties between universities and national and regional economies, and imperatives concerning sustainable development, university communities are under great pressure to meet ever-increasing and often competing demands. The moral-political dimension of higher education and attention to universities’ civic responsibilities are arguably sometimes forgotten in the daily struggle to meet such demands. This journal has been established with this concern in mind, and seeks to promote continued debate and exploration of some of the key responsibilities of, and tensions pervading, higher education with a view to informing attempts to transform it in socially just and sustainable ways.

Since Journal of Praxis in Higher Education’s first issue in 2019, our journal team has worked hard to share, discuss, and spread our agenda. In doing so, we have tried to expand our interests, but also work on our internal journal identity. When asked about our scope and aim, we usually say that we want to create and maintain a journal that is independent, alternative, fresh, and highly relevant. We argue that we want a journal that is less ranking-obedient, but certainly critical and creative with high quality publications. Indeed, we even convey our preference for a slower pace over the potential constraints of being embedded in large publishing houses and external funding. In short, we say that our journal strives to be different in terms of what we see and understand as common praxis.
