- Host a webinar
- Submit a video to the Peer Review Week YouTube channel

How do I submit a video for Peer Review Week?
For Peer Review Week 2020 we are curating a series of videos on the theme of Trust in Peer Review.
We want it to be as easy as possible to participate, so we’re not asking for the highest production values, or long presentations – all that is needed is a smartphone and a little bit of time. We would like videos up to, or around 3 minutes in length, that address any aspect of Trust in peer review, or related to peer review.
You can read our filming tips here to help you understand the process and you can submit your video submission here.
You can view our dedicated YouTube here.
How can I join the Peer Review Week Committee?
- The Peer Review Week Committee is composed by representatives of 28 organizations – you can find an overview on our team’s page.
- The Committee is divided into two teams covering different aspects of Peer Review Week: (i) marketing and communications, (ii) international outreach.

What are your areas of expertise and in which team do you think you’d fit best? Once you’ve submitted, the PRW Committee will consider your interest and be in touch with you.
