A virtual panel discussion on December 2 organized to help faculty at the UVA get started in writing for The Conversation, a national nonprofit news organization that exclusively publishes general news content authored by university faculty.
UVA faculty authors shared their experiences, and were joined by editors from The Conversation to talk about the process of pitching and writing.
The Conversation is a nonprofit, independent news organization dedicated to unlocking the knowledge of experts for the public good. The Conversation publishes trustworthy and informative articles written by academic experts for the general public and edited by a team of journalists.
