Participants will gain practical insights into developing publishable manuscripts, navigating submission and revision stages, and avoiding common pitfalls, alongside concrete tips for strengthening arguments, positioning research, and responding to reviewers.
In the second half of the session, doctoral researchers will meet two senior editors from a leading journal and a book publisher in the Civil Society, Development and Democracy (CDD) field. This informal, interactive conversation offers a rare opportunity to ask candid questions and to hear directly from editors about what distinguishes a compelling manuscript, what common mistakes to avoid, and how early-career researchers can position their work for publication success. This will be a valuable and illuminating event for anyone serious about publishing during the doctorate and beyond.
The programme for this event will be as follows:

13:00-13:10: Welcome;
13:10-13:55: Demystifying the publishing process, with Q&A (Dr Dan Hammett, University of Sheffield);
13:55-14:00: Break;
14:00-14:40: Meet the publishers, with Q&A (chaired by Dr Roxana Barbulescu, University of Leeds);
14:40-14:50: Tips on publishing (Dr Sara Ababneh, University of Sheffield);
14:50-15:00: Concluding remarks and feedback.
