The Canadian Science Fair Journal (CSFJ) is an open-access, non-academic publication for children and youth that showcases articles from youth in Canada aged 12-18. Through a safe and fun simulated publication process led by post-secondary student mentors, young authors learn to communicate their experiences leading science projects while developing critical scientific writing skills.

The CSFJ is not a peer-reviewed academic journal.
