  • Videos, charts, graphs, infographics, statistical charting, podcasts, surveys and quotes maybe included.
  • If you would like to include your resources, citations or works cited in your article, please place them just after the article but before your bio.
  • Provide a suggested title for your article. The editors may alter titles for marketing or communications purposes.
  • After publication, all authors are highly encouraged to share their article through their social media platforms.
