The theme of this year’s Civil War Paths blog series is ‘Building Bridges’. For this blog series we invite authors to submit reflections that bring their research in conversation with new and existing research, practice and policy in the fields of conflict, peace and development.
We’re looking for new blog posts which explore exciting connections between scholarship and practice in these fields, including but not limited to:
- Advancing new or existing theories
- Decoloniality in research and practice
- Knowledge (co)production
- Impact
Blog guidelines
We ask contributors to submit according to the following guidelines:
- Word count: maximum 800 words per piece
- Citations: strong preference for accessible sources (podcasts, other blogs, documentaries, etc.) formatted as hyperlinks within the text
- Images: high-quality visual sources very welcome, including photographs from fieldwork (image ownership will be accredited), data visualizations and profile pictures for each author
- Structure: texts formatted with 2-3 subtitles, for ease of readership
- Style: contributors are strongly recommended to read other posts from the blog to get an idea of writing style (and cross-reference each other’s contributions), our blog is published with British English spelling
