Radically Hopeful is a company limited by guarantee serving community knowledge-making, higher education and research publishing sectors. Led by Kath Burton, an expert in publishing and community engagement, we focus on creating and strengthening effective publishing strategies for community researchers, public scholars, scholarly societies, journals, research institutions, publishing and community organisations. We offer coaching and consultations, project participation and management and innovative publishing solutions in collaboration with a range of providers.
Kath co-founded the Publishing and the Publicly Engaged Humanities group, which includes scholars, publishers, and librarians, to showcase the wide range of values-driven scholarship being published within and across the humanities. With a bold, hopeful approach in both her professional and community work, Kath combines her publishing skills with food-growing initiatives to strengthen community-led knowledge production and sharing.
We’re here to provide public knowledge makers with support and solutions that value inputs just as much as outputs, help you identify multiple publishing options for work that matters and collaborations to expand the influence of your work in a BIG way.
Our mission centers on the generation, curation and sharing practices of publicly engaged knowledge communities.
Our approach provides clear, knowledgeable, and professional advice, tools, and proven solutions for all types of publication.
Our gift to all is the promise that the unique facets of publicly engaged knowledge creation remain at the centre of our activities.
Because it’s what matters that counts.
