Do you want to know more about development concepts and principles, and how they apply to your research? Then this is the right workshop for you!
In this workshop you will learn about:
- The main actors and institutions in International Development.
- The skills and expertise that are required as a researcher working in the field of International Development.
- Using language and communication (and typical language faux pas!) in International Development.
- The factors that impede development progress.
- The practical tips and frameworks you can learn and use for writing in development.
You will leave the workshop with a holistic overview of writing for development and will have practised making connections and intersections between your research and International Development. The skills and learning you will gain in this workshop will be useful to you whichever course of study you are undertaking.
The CSC’s Leaders in Sustainable Development programme of workshops focus on professional and practical skills and are designed to be interactive, with small groups of Scholars and Fellows taking part in each event.

This workshop will be run by AccessEd, a non-profit organisation aimed at promoting fair access to university for all young people. Alongside running in-school programmes for under-represented pupils, they also work with researchers across the world, training them to focus on outreach and public engagement skills, career readiness, and leadership development.
AccessEd workshops are designed and delivered by qualified teachers and academics with extensive experience of training researchers across the UK and internationally.
