Over the last three years, enrolment on INASP’s AuthorAID research-writing Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) has increased from 50 to over 3,000. Aimed at supporting early-career researchers in low- and middle-income countries to publish and communicate their work, the enthusiasm for this MOOC shows there is a clear demand for these skills.
