Advertising Policy

The Global South Journal of Applied Research (GSJAR) does not presently accept commercial advertising, sponsored advertisements or paid promotional content on its journal website, within published articles or as part of its editorial workflow.

Editorial assessment, peer review, acceptance, rejection and publication decisions are based exclusively on scholarly merit, relevance, originality, methodological quality and ethical compliance. Commercial considerations do not influence editorial outcomes.

If GSJAR introduces advertising in the future, advertisements will be clearly distinguishable from editorial and scholarly content. Acceptance of advertising will not imply endorsement by the journal, its editors, editorial board or publisher.

The journal will not accept advertising that is unlawful, misleading, discriminatory, intrusive, deceptive, unsafe, inconsistent with the journal’s scholarly purpose or likely to undermine public trust.

Advertisers and sponsors will not receive confidential information about submissions, authors or reviewers and will have no influence over editorial content, website search results or manuscript decisions.

Any change to the current no-advertising position will be announced through an updated policy before implementation.
