Funding Policy

There are open access publishing fundings out there!

Editors of a publishing project and/or authors may rely upon research grants to cover the publishing costs in open access. Authors without research grants may also ask their university for other sources of funding.

All articles published in open access with Research-publishing.net will be immediately and permanently free for everyone to read and download. In accordance with funding agency requirements, we offer authors a choice of user licence options which define the level of permitted reuse of articles; see our Licence policy for more information.

Discretionary article processing charge waivers will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and may be granted to editors and authors with insufficient funds from emerging countries. All applications for article processing charge waivers should be made at the point of manuscript submission; requests made during the review process or after acceptance will not be considered. To request a waiver or for further information, contact journal@unicollaboration.org.
