Revenue Sources

Our journal sustains its operations through various revenue sources, which help ensure the continued publication of high-quality research. Below are the key sources of revenue:

Author Fees: In our commitment to transparency and sustainability, we may charge authors publication fees to cover the costs of production, peer review, and dissemination. These fees are clearly stated at the time of submission, and we offer various fee waivers or discounts to authors from low-income countries or other qualifying circumstances. Please note that editorial decisions are always made based on the merit of the work and are not influenced by fees.

Subscriptions: We offer institutional and individual subscriptions for full access to our journal’s content. Subscribers receive access to all published articles and back issues. Subscription fees contribute to the journal’s operational costs, including editorial and production expenses.

Advertising: The journal may include advertisements from relevant academic or commercial entities. All advertising is clearly labeled and kept separate from editorial content to maintain the integrity of our publications.

Reprints: Authors or institutions can purchase reprints of articles for personal use or distribution. The revenue generated from reprint sales helps support the journal's financial sustainability.

Institutional and Organizational Support: Our journal receives support from academic institutions, government agencies, and other organizations that share our mission of fostering research and knowledge dissemination. This support helps subsidize costs and maintain the quality of our publications.

Donations and Grants: The journal may receive philanthropic contributions or grants to promote scholarly work in specific fields. These donations support journal operations, including research initiatives, editorial improvements, and open-access programs.

Our business model is designed to balance revenue generation with the journal’s mission to promote quality research. We ensure that publishing fees or any financial considerations never influence the editorial decision-making process, which remains independent and rigorous.
