We are pleased to announce that for the second year running, there will be an English manuscript editing workshop led by three editors with vast experience in this area. The workshops aim to assist early-career researchers and graduate students primarily in the humanities and social sciences in preparing their manuscripts for publication. The workshop leaders will give interactive lectures, offer clear guidance about writing theses in English, and give practical advice about publishing in journals. In addition, the workshops will enable participants to request specific advice through individual consultations. An opportunity not to be missed!
The workshop leaders are:
16–20
Note: Applications will be screened in the first week of February 2015. It may also be possible to attend as an audience member. Please contact us via the address below for further details.
This is a free event.

Important: Please be sure to attach your draft manuscript, which may be shared with the workshop leaders in advance of the event. This is to enable the editors to provide effective feedback.
