handle is hein.journals/intjchrb29 and id is 1 raw text is: THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CHILDREN'S RIGHTS BRILL 29 (2021) 1-2 N IJ H O F F brill.com/chil Editorial This first issue of 2021, comes in the wake of the strangest year in recent history for everyone, including our academic research community.

We are also conscious of the longer- term impacts on research progress, especially for women, and are actively looking at how this may play out in terms of our submissions and publication profile. As we have done in our annual special issues, we encourage experienced and well-resourced scholars to reach out to early career researchers and to those © KONINKLIJKE BRILL NV, LEIDEN, 2021 DOI:10.1163/15718182-29010009
