Toronto Journal of Theology Wins Award

Posted: May 29, 2018

The Toronto Journal of Theology has been recognized with the Scholarly and Research Communication Innovation Award for Social Science and Humanities Journals. Edited by Fellow Prof. Abrahim (Ivan) Khan, this Toronto School of Theology journal provides a Canadian forum for discussing theological issues in cross-cultural perspectives.

The award, which was presented by the Canadian Association of Learned Journals, recognized the journal’s engaging approach to presenting their issues and articles:

“The winner of the Scholarly and Research Communication Innovation Award for Social Science and Humanities Journals is the Toronto Journal of Theology for its video introductory presentations of both journal issues and individual articles. In one recent instance, not only are site users introduced to the topic and the author but also the author’s acapella rendition of the song that is the focus of the author’s textual exploration. The video abstracts help situate the scholarship for readers, allowing them to see and hear elements that are not necessarily communicated through print alone. Clearly, there is a welcome humanizing element in such introductions.”

Congratulations to Prof. Khan and all those involved in the journal’s success.
