NordMedia Network is Looking for Authors

Do you want to write about current Nordic media research?

Are you interested in practicing journalistic writing in English?

Do you want to obtain references in web journalism and scientific communication?

NordMedia Network is now looking for contributing authors for articles. Our “Featured Articles” are written in English on a journalistic basis and published on this site (see News at the front page).

These more in-depth articles can address, for example, the following categories:

  • Feature: reports on current phenomena in the research community
  • Personal portrait: interviews with researchers
  • Visual storytelling: videos, podcasts, visualisations and interactive graphics

For some examples, see https://nordmedianetwork.org/latest/news/.

Authors will receive instructions and the support they need from Nordicom, and the articles will be proofread by native English speakers before publication.

We pay compensation of SEK 1,500–2,000 for freelancers depending on how much work the article requires.

Interested? Sign up for our freelance network with editor-in-chief Maarit Jaakkola, maarit.jaakkola@nordicom.gu.se.

Please indicate which special areas you are most knowledgeable about and interested in: a) person-driven projects, b) feature writing about phenomena, c) visual development, d) other.
