Online Writing School

ABOUT THE SCHOOL

Publishing at the international level can be challenging for early-career scholars. It is crucial for their academic careers and the wide dissemination of knowledge, yet little systematic training is offered to do this task effectively. The ICON•S Online Writing School – provided at no cost – is here to help.

How do you get published in an international journal?
How does the peer-review process work?
How do you write an abstract and an introduction, and how do you structure an article?

This Online Writing School aims to answer these questions and more.

What the school covers

Each edition is a series of online lectures given by internationally recognized legal academics. Topics covered in past editions include:

  • Choosing a topic and preparing a research question
  • Writing an abstract
  • Structuring an article
  • Writing a good introduction
  • Interdisciplinary research
  • Comparative legal research
  • Preparing a grant proposal
  • Preparing an article for submission

How it works

The school has been held online, on Zoom, every year since 2022. Lectures are open to everyone, but every participant must register in advance. Dates, the program and the registration link are announced on this page and on ICON•S social media.
