At Re-ACT Lab, we believe real policy change comes from informed dialogue. We are open for contributions from individuals who are passionate about the Western Balkans and interested in sharing their research-driven perspectives. If you are someone who cares deeply about the region and wants to make a tangible difference, we would love to hear from you.
We are currently accepting contributions specifically for our Re-ACT Explains Series (1,500 - 3,000 words). This series is designed to break down complex topics into easily digestible narratives. We are not just presenting facts; we are providing context, analysis, and expert insights in a way that everyone can understand. Think of it as a guide to navigating the often-complex landscape of the Western Balkans. We want to empower readers with the knowledge they need to participate in informed discussions and understand the forces shaping their region.
If you have a talent for breaking down complex policy topics into clear, engaging narratives, we encourage you to propose your ideas. Our in-house editorial team will work closely with you throughout the writing and editing process, ensuring your work is presented with clarity and impact.
As you write, please keep in mind that our audience includes policymakers, government officials, civil society organisations, academics, journalists, and engaged citizens across the Western Balkans and beyond. Re-ACT Lab's mission is to educate and inform these stakeholders, contributing to evidence-based decision-making and fostering constructive debates on critical policy issues. We aim to provide clear, concise, and impactful analysis that addresses the complex challenges facing the region and, whenever possible, offering solutions that elevate the quality of those debates.
Contributing to the Re-ACT Explains Series offers you a valuable opportunity to share your expertise and insights with a wide audience. As this is a voluntary effort (and non-funded initiative) aimed at providing accessible and insightful analysis of key policy issues in the region, contributions are voluntary.
