Ethnobotany reviewing

Services archive

I have previously reviewed manuscripts for archaeological, botanical, and agricultural journals, at the request of journal editors. I am happy to receive such requests, but am most interested in reviewing ethnobotanical manuscripts.

Food Insecurity as causal factor of conflict

Dear Geoffrey,This could be the start of a useful discussion on an important research topic.I have created this 'Projects' forum for you, and others, so research projects like this can be suggested and discussed.Hopefully, this will also encourage formal or more in-depth writing and publishing on various subjects, and more in-depth collaborations - independently of the Research Cooperative.We are not an organisation that can become involved in doing research; our aim is merely to promote better research communication, and to help people make useful connections for their writing and publishing efforts.Peter

Hi....I have created a new 'Projects' forum so that projects like this can be suggested and discussed, and I have shifted your discussion into this new forum.Hopefully, the new forum will encourage formal or more in-depth writing and publishing on various subjects - and various kinds of research collaboration independent of the Research Cooperative.We are not an organisation that can become involved in doing research; our aim is merely to promote better research communication, and to help people make useful connections for their writing and publishing efforts.Please feel free to continue your discussion here.Best regards, Peter

Dear Harun,I should have added: you can also use your profile page blog to upload a document with an outline or with details of what you are thinking about, and then ask for comments on the document there - but only if you are ready to present material in a public manner.A better way might be to write something, ask for a volunteer or paid editor in the editing request forum, and then send the document out privately if you receive an offer from someone you would like to try working with.

I agree with the comments by Golam Mostofa, and would like to make some further suggestions.A lot depends of course on how far your finances can stretch. Whatever the amount, it is better to begin in a small way to develop your approach, and to find people to work with, before committing too much (thanks for using the Research Cooperative!).You also need to be flexible about the naming of your project. Begin with what you have, as a working title, but be ready to change the name as your aims become more clear.Consider writing a research paper or working paper that reviews what services and projects are actually already having an impact in or near the area you wish to work in.The title could be something like: "A review of poverty reduction and peace promotion at the local/regional/country (which is you aim?) level in Bangladesh: history, prospects, and possible new directions".If you want or need, try using our Cooperative forums to seek out potential assistants or coauthors for the research and writing. Think about what local or other audiences you would like to reach with such a paper. Once you have something that is well written and ready to present, it could become a foundation document for a project website, for example, even it is not formally published anywhere.

Book and journal editors or publishers can request qualified researchers (or others with suitable experience) to review or referee books and papers (this is usually a volunteer service, though an honorarium might be offered, depending on the policies and financial circumstances of each publisher)

Welcome - what is the potential here?

Online interpreting offers

Interpreters can now employ internet protocols to work with speakers in one or more different locations.

What is really the potential here?

Interpreters for any language pair are welcome to make an offers here.

Thanks.
