We invite submissions exploring the psychological and behavioural dynamics of environmental activism, with a view to understanding how people engage with climate issues — from everyday behaviour to large-scale protest movements.

Research is invited on a range of themes, including but not limited, to:

• Motivational foundations: How personal needs, moral convictions, civic engagement, and ideology drive environmental action.
• Forms of activism: From low-threshold behaviours (e.g., recycling, voting) to high-risk tactics (e.g., civil disobedience, violent protest).
• Theories of motivational conflict: Including motivational imbalance theory and goal systems theory in the context of activism.
• Identity and activism: Environmentalist identity, value alignment, and long-term behavioural commitment.
• Generational and political dynamics: Age, political ideology, sexuality, and religiosity as predictors of environmental concern and behaviour.
• Media and framing effects: How framing influences perceptions of legitimacy, efficacy and extremism in environmental action.
• Backlash and opposition: Reactions and public-opinion effects to perceived overreach or disruption by environmental groups.
• Environmental threat perception: Risk appraisal and its role in motivating—or demotivating—behavioural engagement.
• Activist commitment and dropout: Psychological and social predictors of sustained vs. short-term activism.
• Normative behaviour and tipping points: How group behaviour and social tipping points shift norms toward activism.
