Special Issue Guidelines

Special Issues (SIs) comprise a series of articles that explore a particular theme, curated by Guest Editors who are experts in the field. Each submission undergoes a rigorous peer review to ensure the highest quality and relevance. Upon acceptance, the articles are identified as part of a Special Issue and can be accessed as a distinct collection. 

Why Publish in a Special Issue?

Publishing in a Special Issue offers numerous perks for authors. One significant advantage is greater discoverability, as articles are grouped by theme, making it easier for researchers to find relevant work. The organized structure also ensures ease of navigation for readers exploring specific topics. Special Issues often receive external promotion, enhancing the visibility of your research. All submissions undergo rigorous peer-review, ensuring the highest standards of quality and credibility. Furthermore, contributing to a Special Issue allows you to expand your research network by connecting with other experts and scholars in your field. 

Perks of Serving as a Guest Editor for a Special Issue

  • Recognition and Visibility: Guest Editors will be prominently featured on the journal’s website and in the special issue.
  • Certificate of Appreciation: Guest Editors will receive a formal certificate acknowledging their valuable contribution.
  • Waived APC: Guest Editors are granted the opportunity to publish one article without any Article Processing Charges (APC).
  • Social Media Promotion: The editor’s role and contributions will be highlighted and promoted on the journal’s social media platforms.
