Write for Mongolia Weekly

​

Mongolia Weekly invites submissions from contributors who can offer clear, original analysis on Mongolia’s political, economic, and social landscape. To help you prepare a strong piece, please review the following guidelines:

​

What We Look For

• Insightful commentary that goes beyond headlines, drawing on structural trends, historical context, data, or comparative perspectives.

• Op-eds of maximum 800 words written in clear, direct English and accessible to a general audience.

• Strong arguments supported by evidence and hyperlinks to credible sources.

• Writing that avoids academic scaffolding, jargon, and signposting such as “first, second, third” or “in this article I will.”

• Analysis that explains why the issue matters now and what readers should take away.

​

Use of Visuals

• Authors may include charts, infographics, photographs, or maps that strengthen the analysis.

• Visuals must be high-resolution, copyright-safe, and accompanied by clear captions.

• For charts, include underlying data or source links so our team can verify or recreate visuals in our house style.

• Visuals should clarify the argument rather than act as decorative filler.

​

Editorial Process

• Submissions may be reviewed by subject-matter specialists anonymously.

• All accepted drafts are edited for clarity, precision, and house style before being returned for author approval.

• Because the review process requires time and care, submissions must be exclusive to Mongolia Weekly while under consideration.

​

Who Should Submit

• We welcome contributors at all experience levels, including those writing in English as a second language.

• Our editors work closely with authors to ensure the final piece is polished and accessible.

​​

Submission Requirements

• Your piece must be original, unpublished, and not under review elsewhere.

• Please include a one-sentence author bio with your submission (institutional affiliation, research focus, or professional background).

• Submit via contact us below.
