The Canadian Association of Foundations of Education (CAFE) is seeking submissions of single authored or dual authored books or monographs for the CAFE 2026 Publications Award. The purpose of this year’s award is to recognize books or monographs that have made a major contribution to knowledge in the disciplines that fall under the rubric of the foundations of education. These disciplines generally include history, philosophy, and sociology of education, but also include other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences that contribute to educational theory. This award will be made at the CAFE Annual Meeting during the CSSE Conference.
