Guest blog guidelines

We’re always looking for engaging content on topics of interest to our members. Do you have thought-provoking insights and views to share on international communication? If so, we'd love to hear from you - whether you have opinions on industry trends, a book review, case study, or something entirely different.

 

How can I get involved?

Please get in touch with us to discuss your idea before writing the article to make sure it’s suitable for our readers and that we don’t already have a similar post on the same topic scheduled. We can then also discuss timings.

 

Are there any requirements for the guest post once we have agreed on a topic?

Please make sure your article:

 

  • Is no longer than 800 words

  • Is in a Word document format, with photographs attached in the email (not embedded in the document)

  • Includes a short author biography and accompanying photograph

  • Includes your contact info, such as email, Twitter handle and/or LinkedIn profile

  • You can include additional pieces of visual content. This can for example be:

  • Photograph in JPEG or PNG format (to which you own the rights or is copyright free)

  • Infographic or quote card in JPEG or PNG format (to which you own the rights or is copyright free)

  • A link to a video that is publicly available and does not require a password 

  • Includes links to any sources referenced
