  • CFS/RCÉA Moves to Diamond Open Access

    2026-03-18

    Canadian Food Studies / La Revue canadienne des études sur l’alimentation (CFS/RCÉA) is pleased to announce that the journal is moving to a Diamond Open Access (OA) publishing model in our efforts to remove financial barriers for authors, enhance equity and diversity, and promote knowledge as a public good. 

    This means that all articles will continue to be freely available under an open Creative Commons licence without subscription fees and the journal will be removing all fees charged to authors (also known as article processing charges or APCs). This new policy is in effect for articles accepted for publication as of March 16, 2026.

    CFS/RCÉA invites authors to submit articles that fall within the scope of the journal. See author submission guidelines for more details. 

    Look for the upcoming CFS/RCÉA issue in mid-April.
