AN Call for Proposals: Work-Life Balance

Maintaining a balance between work and other aspects of lifeincluding family, home, community and outside interests—can be challenging for both academic and practicing anthropologists. Some cite inflexible educational or professional infrastructures or the challenges of doing local anthropology as barriers to maintaining a healthy and comfortable work–life balance.

In the September issue of AN we introduce an ongoing commentary series addressing these challenges, as well as strategies developed to meet them. We welcome proposals for future commentaries on this topic.

Guidelines
To participate in this thematic series, email a 300 word proposal and 50-100 word author bio to Anthropology News editor Dinah Winnick. Selected writers will be invited to contribute a 1000-1400 word commentary.

Proposal submission deadline: Open/ongoing
