Open Access Policy

A. Open Access Policy

The JUSTE (Journal of Science and Technology) is fully open access. All published articles are made freely and permanently accessible to the public, with no subscription or access fees.

We uphold the principle that scientific knowledge should be shared openly, especially to empower innovation across small island and archipelagic contexts. Our open access policy promotes increased visibility, accessibility, and impact of authors’ work across global academic and professional communities.

B. Key Features:

• ✅ Free Access for Readers: All articles are immediately and permanently available online.

• ✅ No Submission or Processing Charges: Authors are not charged at any stage of the submission and publication process.

• ✅ Copyright Retained by Authors: Authors retain full copyright of their work.

C. Our Commitment

By eliminating access restrictions and financial barriers, JUSTE fosters a more inclusive and equitable environment for research dissemination—particularly for underrepresented regions and interdisciplinary collaboration.
