Abstract
In this editorial we reflect on the first ten years of our journal’s mission to bring together voices from the Global North and Global South as a platform for scholars and practitioners to discuss and debate the key issues affecting journalism. We acknowledge the great vision and work of our founding editor, professor Leon Barkho, who is stepping down in his role as principal editor. He has developed and implemented the ideas that have shaped our journal and who championed cultural diversity and gender balance as reflected in our editorial board, from the outset. Stepping up to the role of main editor, Jairo Lugo-Ocando talks about the powerful legacy of the journal in making important and critical contributions to academic debates and practitioners’ work and then explains how we will meet the challenges that lie ahead. We outline our continued commitment to a robust peer-review process, a refresh of our editorial board with younger faces to renew and connect the journal to new trends and areas from the emerging scholarship. We highlight a series of Special Issues that will add to our unique collection and focus on specific themes and our intention to relaunch a prize for best article submitted, in conjunction with a major partner. We introduce the six articles for our latest publication bringing together a selection of themes and authors that opens a series of discussions in new areas.
