Contribute to AJEC...

We are interested in…

  • AJEC articles – research and debate
  • suggestions for themed AJEC issues
  • article reviewers.

The AJEC Committee and the Early Childhood Australia Publications Committee invite high-quality contributions on all aspects of the education and care of young children from birth to eight.


Given the multidisciplinary nature of the early childhood field, Early Childhood Australia welcomes submissions from a variety of perspectives, the main criteria being that they provide a contemporary and informative contribution to the early childhood field.

Interested authors and reviewers should look closely at the guidelines for contributors, found at the top of this page, and seek further information on the preparation of manuscripts from the Publishing and Marketing Section.
