How It Works

Throughout all stages, every session is hands-on, with time dedicated to applying new strategies to each participant’s own work. The entire programme is practical and outcome-oriented: by the end of Stage 1 participants will have produced a mini conference presentation; by the end of Stage 2 they will have a complete draft; and by the end of Stage 3, they will have a submission-ready manuscript.

Stage 1: Immersive In-Person Workshop

• We begin with an immersive, hands-on, on-the-ground workshop. The purpose of this is to build a supportive and dynamic community, assess and develop participants’ current academic writing skills, and launch both the individual and a group publication project.

• This stage culminates in a mock conference, where participants present their work, receive targeted feedback, and leave with concrete and actionable writing plans.

Stage 2: Online Incubation

Following the workshop, participants enter an 3-month structured and scaffolded online program in which they develop their ideas into complete and engaging manuscripts. In this stage:

• Work continues collaboratively, with peer support and expert guidance

• Developmental editing demystifies each step from first draft to submission, and helps to pinpoint and lay bare the core ideas

• Participants progress from concept to polished, publication-ready article

Stage 3: Dedicated Individual Editorial Support

Following the online sessions, we work closely with participants to finalize their manuscripts for publication.
