The Global South Journal of Applied Research (GSJAR) follows an immediate open-access publishing model.

All published articles are made freely available to readers through the journal website without subscription or access charges. The journal supports open access as a means of strengthening research visibility, scholarly exchange, professional use and public access to knowledge.
