About JoCAT online

The Journal of Creative Arts Therapies (JoCAT) is an open access peer-reviewed publication of the Australian, New Zealand and Asian Creative Arts Therapies Association in association with the School of Social Sciences, Western Sydney University. Our scope  JoCAT provides a lively forum for academic research and practice-based papers with a focus on reflexivity and innovation in the field. It sets out to offer a useful resource for members and others, and to contribute to broader knowledge and understanding of the creative arts therapies. JoCAT creates opportunities and encouragement for new and established authors within Aotearoa New Zealand, Asia/Pacific, Australia, and internationally to publish their work. The journal promotes a diversity of modalities, philosophical orientations, voices and genres.  Contributions  JoCAT publishes full-length papers on selected themes and original research; shorter papers – brief practice-based papers, case studies and discussion papers; interviews with contributors to the field of the creative arts therapies; reviews of books, videos, performances and exhibitions; reflections; and creative contributions, such as creative writing, poetry, artworks, photo essays, illustrated stories, comics and cartoons and documentation of performance works.  While JoCAT is published in English, a paper written in an author’s preferred language can be considered alongside an English version. Both will be published online.  JoCAT acknowledges the Tangata Whenua and First Peoples of the countries of our authors and readers.
