Scholarly Writing for Publication Workshop
Whether you are an academic, clinician, practitioner, researcher, or policy professional, scholarly writing is a valuable way to share knowledge, showcase innovation, influence practice, and contribute to important conversations in ageing and related fields.
This interactive two-hour workshop provides practical guidance on developing and publishing scholarly articles from an editorial perspective. Through a combination of short presentations, writing exercises, and open discussion, participants will gain insights into the publication process and learn strategies for turning ideas into publishable manuscripts.
During the workshop, you will:
* Learn how to write with a specific journal and audience in mind
* Explore mind mapping techniques to organise and develop ideas
* Develop a structured, methodical approach to writing an article
* Create a working abstract that effectively communicates your message
* Gain practical tips for responding to reviewer and editor feedback
Participants are encouraged to bring along an idea for an article, a working title, or a draft summary or abstract of work they are interested in publishing.
Whether you are preparing your first manuscript or looking to refine your publication skills, this workshop will provide practical tools, expert advice, and confidence to support your writing journey.
