Waiver Eligibility

The Social Sciences & Humanities Journal offers waiver eligibility for authors who are unable to cover publication fees due to financial constraints. Authors from low-income countries or institutions with limited funding may apply for a fee waiver by submitting a formal request along with their manuscript. The request should outline the reasons for the financial hardship and may require supporting documentation, such as institutional or funding details. Waivers are granted on a case-by-case basis and are subject to approval by the journal’s editorial board. The journal is committed to supporting scholarly work from diverse backgrounds and ensures that financial barriers do not prevent high-quality research from being published.
