🔎 Do you have a draft article, thesis chapter, research proposal, abstract, concept or research idea that could benefit from another scholarly perspective? First Scholar Support Peer Review Session—check the calendar 🗓️ tab above👆 📄 Want your work reviewed? Share your draft in advance in the community or contact me privately if you prefer not to share it publicly. 👥 Want to be a reviewer? You are equally welcome. Different disciplines and levels of experience can bring valuable perspectives. Interested? Comment “I’m interested” and indicate whether you would like to submit, review—or both.

🔎 Working on a draft article, thesis, proposal or other research output? Share it with the Scholar Support community and receive constructive feedback from fellow scholars. Upload your draft in advance to give reviewers enough time to read it. And remember: you don’t need to be an expert to offer a useful perspective. Have something you’re working on? Share it below. 👇

🌱 Scholar Support is still growing, but the direction is becoming clearer. The vision is to build a practical learning community where scholars help scholars move forward—from developing research ideas to writing, publishing, accessing opportunities and translating research into impact. Over time, we hope to develop: 📚 Practical short courses and research tools ✍️ Writing, proposal and publication support 🔎 Peer review of manuscripts, theses and research ideas 🎓 Scholarship, fellowship, grant and career opportunities 💬 Research clinics, discussions and live learning sessions 🤝 Collaboration between scholars across disciplines, institutions and countries But Scholar Support should not be built by one person If you have expertise you would like to share, a session you could facilitate, resources that could help others, or an idea for collaboration, please reach out. And if you're here primarily to learn, your questions and challenges are equally important—they will help shape what we build. What would you like to contribute to—or see developed through—Scholar Support?

📚 As more scholars join, I would love to know what you are working on. Go ahead introduce yourself to the community. What is ONE thing you would like Scholar Support to help you with right now? It could be: 🔍 Developing a research question or methodology 📚 Conducting a literature review ✍️ Academic writing 📄 Turning a thesis into a journal article 🔎 Getting peer feedback on a draft 📊 Analysing or communicating research findings 💰 Developing a proposal or grant application 🎓 Finding scholarships, fellowships or postdoctoral opportunities 🤖 Using AI responsibly in research 🌍 Turning research into policy or practice 👇 Comment with ONE priority. Your responses will help shape our first Scholar Support courses, practical tools and peer-review sessions.

🎓 Sometimes we choose to pursue a degree, research project or academic goal quietly. Maybe you don't know how difficult the journey will be. Maybe you don't want the pressure of everyone asking, “How is it going?” Perhaps you simply want to work at your own pace—and share the achievement when you're ready. That is perfectly okay. But keeping your journey private doesn't mean you have to navigate it alone. Scholar Support is about having a community of scholars who can offer another perspective, review an idea or draft, challenge your thinking, and help you move forward. You can participate openly in the community, or connect privately with fellow scholars when you need more discreet support. Keep your journey as private as you need. Just don't deny yourself the support that could make it easier.
