Do your academic interests cover Global Politics and the Environment? Would you like to get your work published? This is a perfect chance for you to get your work in print and contribute to the esteemed literature of a leading public policy think-tank.
The University of Manchester has joined a national partnership between selected UK universities and IPPR (Institute of Public Policy Research). Every year, [email protected] publishes a prestigious policy journal ‘Metis’ and the theme this year is Global Politics and the Environment.
We at [email protected] are asking you to submit a 1500 word policy paper arguing for a specific policy change relating to global politics and the environment. Deadline for submissions is 17th January 2012 but we welcome you to submit a 200 word abstract or working title to us at [email protected] before 9th December 2011 to express your interest. Don’t worry if it’s just an idea- we’d really like to hear from you.
[email protected] want to give you the best chance of getting your article published so we have arranged a ‘How to write a policy article’ workshop with IPPR Research Fellow – Jenni Viitanen. This workshop will contain lots of useful tips, practical activities and a chance for you to ask questions to Jenni, who has a wealth of experience in writing policy articles. Please email [email protected]com to secure your place. We look forward to hearing from you!
