The ARCC board and ENQ Editorial Board would like to solicit proposals for the next issue of Enquiry, which will be published in Q4 of 2025.

In this open call, we encourage authors who have recently participated in the April 2025 ARCC International Conference to further develop their presented papers around the conference theme of Emerging Challenges. Articles addressing complex topics, including challenges around data collection, tools, creativity, pedagogy, materials, modeling, and engagement through the larger conference theme are encouraged. Different theoretical perspectives, epistemologies, and methodological approaches are also invited. Scales addressed could be from the level of construction details (i.e., envelope construction and indoor air quality, construction systems, etc.) to the building scale (i.e., a design for movement, circular economies, etc.) to the community scale (i.e., participatory action research, community engagement strategies, etc.). Empirical research, literature reviews, theoretical arguments, and methodological outlines are all welcome. 

While the conference paper likely skims and introduces concepts, often a small element and ideas, this journal article submission wil be deeper and more rigorous, expanding on aspects of the conference paper or providing more description/data/discussion in 5,000-10,000 words.

The submission deadlines for the next upcoming issues are:

15 September 2025. Deadline for submission of articles
December 2025. Publication

Submit articles at: https://arcc-journal.org/index.php/arccjournal/about/submissions
