It provides a forum for academics, practitioners and community representatives to explore issues and reflect on methodological practices relating to the full range of engaged activity. The journal publishes empirical and evaluative case studies of community-based research and pedagogy; detailed analyses of partnership models, processes and practices; and theoretical reflections that contribute to the scholarship of engagement. Gateways is produced by the Centre for Social Justice and Inclusion at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia, and published by UTS ePress.
