Call for Articles: The Blue Letters blog (Submit by Nov 20)

The Blue Letters is a digital knowledge platform. Throughout human history, one of the primary reasons for socio-economic disparity has been lack of accessibility, especially to knowledge.

The law, complex social structures, and the intricate concepts of various social sciences often create confusion due to their complex terminology and the sheer volume of data.

This confusion, this gap between people and information is the place where most of society’s issues take root – be it corruption, class disparity, or other forms of discrimination.

This initiative is a small attempt from our side to bridge that gap. Our hope and objective is for a more inclusive and accessible future.

Call For Articles

The Blue Letters welcomes all kinds of submissions in the form of articles, research pieces, opinions, and short notes for our Blog Series on the theme: “Social Justice”.
