Five reasons to write for Agenda

1.     Issues that matter. From climate change to financial crises to inequality, the challenges that face our world are complex and nuanced. Leaders need to share their insight into how to tackle these challenges. Agenda is a neutral space where contributors can share their thoughts – in depth, and in the constructive, optimistic spirit that defines the Forum.

2.     A global audience. Agenda is read by nearly one million people around the world each month. We share articles with our social media audience of 2.3 million on Twitter, 600k on Facebook, 2.1 million on Google+ and 100,000 on LinkedIn. We also translate articles into Spanish and Mandarin, with social media promotion targeted for audiences in Latin America and China.

3.     Reaching the right people. We’ll share your article on Toplink, the World Economic Forum’s private platform for collaboration among our community – your work will be read by people who can make a difference.

4.     Influential voices. Contributors include heads of states, the CEOs of the world’s most significant multinationals, the heads of International Organisations and Nobel Laureates, as well as the young leaders, entrepreneurs and scientists who will shape our future. See the list of a few selected contributors below.

5.     Maximum impact. Our expert digital media team draws on experience from leading media organisations to help you make sure your ideas are expressed in a clear and compelling way, from suggesting edits to your text to sourcing images and charts that will get your work shared on social media.
