Peer review & ethics

Submissions are screened by an editor for scope, quality, ethics and similarity, then evaluated through double-anonymised peer review by at least two independent experts. Reviewers are asked to respond within three weeks. Editors and reviewers declare conflicts of interest. See our editorial policies.

Publication fees

Our article processing charge (APC) policy will be published here before any charge applies. Authors are never charged before acceptance, and waivers will be available for authors from low-income countries and those without funding.

Indexing & identifiers

Articles carry Google Scholar metadata and ORCID integration from first publication. Crossref DOIs and an ISSN are being registered. We will apply to DOAJ, Scopus and Web of Science once the journal meets their eligibility criteria, and will list each service here only after acceptance.
