The Design and Culture editorial team initiated the Emerging Scholars Workshop in 2020 as part of a broader effort at reimagining knowledge production and dissemination within design research. The workshop was designed to support and guide authors with limited experience in academic publishing due to issues such as access, language, and academic hierarchy. Its goal was also to diversify the types of articles submitted to Design and Culture. This paper reflects on the workshop, drawing on the experiences of workshop coordinators/peers, and participants selected through an annual Call for Papers. It presents the tensions embedded in shaping the workshop and its aims, including the challenges of defining the term “emerging,” the constraints of traditional article formats, and the difficulties of changing an existing publishing infrastructure. The paper also offers suggestions for how similar workshops can cultivate opportunities for mutual support and care among communities of interdisciplinary researchers to promote diversity in scholarship. It advances the idea of the “in-between space” of the workshop as a source of potential for designing more community-oriented approaches in publishing that prioritize relational interdependence over individual competition
