    This workshop targets junior international faculty who are struggling to find their place in the research conversation. In line with the Academy's ongoing reach for international scholars, and its concern to be more inclusive and relevant to an increasing number of international faculty joining the academy, this workshop aims at providing a platform for peer-to peer interaction, whereby four international scholars who are building a foundation for a successful academic career share their experiences with their peers and recall various avenues, ideas, and occurrences that allowed them to overcome the various challenges faced. Each presenter, by drawing on the example of a real paper's story, will focus on one particular challenge and will highlight the critical incidents that allowed them to move along the perilous publishing process from desk reject to revisions to final publications. These junior faculty facilitators, along with a senior international scholar will offer tips from the trenches, key questions for peer reflection as well as actionable take-aways that can get help other junior international scholar navigate their way through the academy and through the publishing process more generally. The PDW will also serve a platform to forge connections between the junior international faculty themselves.
