By Open Rivers Editorial Staff

For seven years, Open Rivers has shared provocative and meaningful articles with our growing audience based on the research, narratives, perspectives, and practices of our expanding network of authors. Even as the Covid-19 pandemic disrupted all our lives, we’ve continued to publish new issues. Our last six issues include content that queries our relationships with the natural as relatives, imagines the possibilities of our futures with water, considers the shifting flows of rivers as a guide in uncertain times, engages with rivers as shapers of both socialscapes and landscapes, and explores the myriad, complex ways that women and water are entangled in beautiful and troublesome ways. Together, these issues engage, inspire, and challenge us as readers.

We are privileged to be able to share this variety of powerful work with all of you and we are grateful to our authors, readers, peer reviewers, board members, partners, and staff for making this possible. We especially appreciate the collaboration of our partners at the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing and the University of Minnesota Institute for Advanced Study and the support of the Mellon Foundation. In addition, as we welcome new editorial board members this fall, we offer our heartfelt thanks to our outgoing board members, many of whom have served since the journal’s start in 2015. The labor, attention, and contributions of so many people help this journal maintain its integrity and bring you the thoughtful and stimulating work you’ve come to expect from us. Thank you all, readers and contributors alike, for being an invaluable part of our Open Rivers’ community.
