The Oxford Diplomatic Dispatch is a regular, short-piece electronic publication consisting of opinion and analysis pieces focused on international affairs and diplomacy.

Any student at the University of Oxford can contribute a written piece to be published alongside expert guest writers from their respective professional fields.

Selected articles are published on our website in the digital magazine and advertised on the Society’s social media platforms. Three editions of The Dispatch are published each term.  

This year, The Dispatch will not have selected themes, instead, any topic with an international context will be allowed.

We have a team of seven regional editors to give The Dispatch a broad scope and ensure every part of the world is represented. The regions are as follows:

1. Europe

2. Middle East and North Africa

3. Central Asia and the Caucasus

4. Indo-Pacific

5. Latin America and the Caribbean

6. North America

7. Sub-Sahara

If you are interested in writing for us, please email oxdiplodispatch@gmail.com with your idea and outline (which can be as developed/underdeveloped as you like). Please include your full name, degree, and college in the email. We actively encourage divergent and atypical perspectives on international topics.

Following this, we will ask for a submission of around 500-1,000 words with a deadline to make the next edition. To feature in the next edition, please follow our Instagram (@oxford_diplomatic_dispatch) and stay tuned for updates.
