The programme will be facilitated by an international group of experienced authors, reviewers and journal editors who will take you through the whole process from exploring options for scholarly writing, developing good writing habits, setting up a contribution, using literature, research design and methods through to writing persuasively. You will also be part of a small group that will be encouraged to have regular check-ins to support each other’s progress against your target over the course of the programme. We will also offer mentoring support for your writing project.

This programme is for you if you have little experience of writing for academic outlets or you would benefit from some new insights and practical advice on academic writing with a structure that encourages you to write productively.
