Author Guidelines

Prior to submission, authors are responsible for ensuring that:

·         Permission has been obtained for all third-party content included in the manuscript (e.g., images, datasets, appendices).

·         All listed authors have agreed to be identified as such and have contributed substantially to the manuscript.

·         Ethical approval has been granted, where applicable, by a recognized ethics committee in accordance with the legal and institutional requirements of the study's country of origin.

The editorial team reserves the right to desk reject any manuscript that fails to meet the minimum standards of academic rigor, relevance, or clarity. To avoid this:

·         Ensure that the research design and argumentation are clearly structured and logically developed.

·         Craft a concise, informative title that accurately reflects the content of the paper.

·         Prepare an abstract (maximum 150 words) that is self-contained and captures the key elements of the study.

A well-prepared submission not only enhances clarity for reviewers but also increases the likelihood of securing timely peer review. Once you are confident your manuscript meets these criteria, proceed to the submission checklist and detailed formatting requirements outlined in the following sections.
