The Conversation
The Conversation is an independent source for informed commentary and analysis, written by the academic and research community and edited by journalists for the general public.
It is a digital publication that helps research reach a wide audience. As a Founding Partner of The Conversation, UMass Amherst academics have been republished in outlets such as: Newsweek, Business Insider, Quartz, Fast Company, The Huffington Post, Salon, U.S. News, and Time.
Why write for the general public? Access to independent, high quality, evidence-based, explanatory journalism underpins a functioning democracy. Our aim is to promote better understanding of current affairs and complex issues.
All HFA faculty members are invited to submit ideas to The Conversation. A list of previous articles written by UMass Amherst faculty can be found here.
