Dear colleagues
We would like to call you, members of your association or other relevant authors connected and devoted to the field of child and adolescents psychiatry and allied professions to submit a paper to the ECAP ESCAP Communication section.
In the last 8 years, this ESCAP Communication section has seen an array of published papers about national societies, European projects, expert articles, Research Academy reports and national research papers, all of which are extremely interesting and informative to our ESCAP community. You can find many of the previous ESCAP Communications articles below.
The aim of this section is to reach a large audience to inform about current issues in European child and adolescent psychiatry. If you and your colleagues have a specific topic that you believe would fit this type of article then we kindly request that you send your proposals to section editor Professor Konstantinos Kotsis.
The article should be in the region of 2000-4000 words. The article is subject to editorial review and may be peer-reviewed. There is no cost for anyone as the publication will be available online for free.
Please share this information with your colleagues so we can continue to improve and raise awareness of difficulties and issues in child and adolescent psychiatry.
Professor Konstantinos Kotsis
