Quality and Accuracy

• Thorough Research: All content must be based on thorough research from credible sources. Writers are expected to consult a mix of primary and secondary sources, including academic journals, industry reports, and expert interviews.
• Fact-Checking: Accuracy is paramount. All factual information, data, and statistics must be verified for accuracy before publication.
• Clear and Accessible Writing: Content should be written in clear, concise language to make complex topics accessible to a broad audience. Avoid jargon and technical terms when possible, or provide explanations for terms that may not be widely understood.

Reader Engagement and Respect

• Respectful Communication: Content should respect the diversity of our audience and avoid language that is discriminatory, offensive, or derogatory.
