Mark your calendar for Peer Review Week (PRW) 2021, September 20-24. This year’s event is dedicated to the theme “Identity in Peer Review”. During the week, participating organisations will host virtual events and activities exploring the multifaceted nature of identity, how personal and social identity affects peer review practices and experiences, and what’s needed to foster more diverse, equitable, and inclusive peer review processes.
