font-family: Roboto;" class="">Participation is open to PhD students and early-career scholars who are up to five years post-PhD. Applications are particularly encouraged from students and scholars who are based at institutions in Latin America and elsewhere in the Global South, however this is not a requirement for participation. The workshop will include sessions with the full group that allow students and early-career scholars to hear about the insights and experiences of journal editors, who are also senior scholars in the field, and to become aware of the projects that their peers are engaged in. It will also include small-group sessions in which attendees will receive feedback on a draft article manuscript from the journal editors and from their peers – a conversation that will continue after the workshop, as editors follow up on the progress of attendees and ongoing peer support is encouraged. Information-sharing and structured support, both during the workshop and following it, are designed to overcome well-known obstacles to PhD students and early-career scholars from the Global South in publishing in leading English-language journals in this and other fields. <o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Participants will be asked to submit a draft manuscript by November 21, 2022 to receive feedback on during the workshop. In preparing a submission, participants should keep in mind the types of manuscripts published by the seven 4S-affiliated journals. These include, for example, original research articles, substantial discussion papers, short research notes, and review essays.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Timeline for the workshop is:<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; word-spacing: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Submission of Abstracts: 22nd August 2022<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; word-spacing: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Communication of Acceptance: 5th September 2022<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; word-spacing: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Submission of draft manuscripts (4,000 to 7,000 words): 21st November 2022<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; word-spacing: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Workshop in Cholula: 5th-6th December 2022<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; word-spacing: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">Follow up meeting (virtual): TBD <o:p class=""></o:p></span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Roboto;" class="">This workshop is supported by the 4S Council, and funding for travel to the conference will be provided for conference participants based at institutions in the Global South (<a href="http://www.fc-ssc.org/en/partnership_program/south_south_countries" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: rgb(26, 115, 232);" class="">as defined by the UNSSFC</span></a>).
