Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit their work to this journal. Before submitting your article, please ensure that you comply with the Style Guidelines and carefully read the following information.

  1. Submissions must be made through the website after registration, including a photo of your national ID and the signed and properly completed consent form.
  2. All proposals will be evaluated by an editor to determine whether they meet the journal’s aims and scope. Those deemed suitable will be sent for peer review before a decision is made to accept or reject them.
  3. Before submitting a proposal, authors are responsible for obtaining permission to publish any material included in the submission, such as photographs, documents, and datasets. All authors identified in the proposal must give their consent to be listed as such. When applicable, the research must have the approval of an appropriate ethics committee, in accordance with the legal requirements of the country where the study was conducted.
  4. An editor may reject a proposal outright if it does not meet minimum quality standards. Before submitting, ensure that the study design and research argument are properly structured and articulated. The title should be concise, the abstract should stand on its own, and the keywords should not duplicate any words from the title. This will increase the likelihood that reviewers will agree to evaluate it. Once you are confident that your proposal meets this standard, follow the checklist below to prepare your submission.
