ResAid Guideline on Academic Publication

ResAid Guideline on Academic Publication: Part of ResAid Guidelines on academic research

At ResAid, we know that research, especially from conflict zones, low-resource settings, or among vulnerable populations—is not just important, it’s urgent. Yet for many early-career researchers, especially those working outside elite institutions, the path from research ideas to published article can feel like a maze of technical requirements, unfamiliar jargon, and hidden gatekeepers.

This guide is built to change that.

This document is your step-by-step map through the academic publishing process. It is designed for researchers who already have a well-developed study—perhaps the results are in hand, the data is solid, and now the question is: where and how do I publish this?
