The open access journal has implemented an "author-pays" policy to maintain efficient submission processing and high-quality online publishing. 

Upon acceptance of an article, an APC (article processing charge) of USD399 will be charged. This fee helps cover the costs associated with reviewing, editing, typesetting, and hosting the article on our platform.

To make publishing more accessible, we offer special discounts of up to 25% off for students and authors from low-income countries. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to share their research with the world, regardless of financial constraints.

Authors are encouraged to prepare manuscripts using the template, though format-free initial submissions are acceptable. 

Please submit online or email to Editor of Human Geography, subscihall@gmail.com, cc to editorscihall@gmail.com.

Submission checklist: a manuscript, a cover letter, and a list of 1-3 reviewers proposed (optional).

Any questions about the submission, assessment, and publication, please feel free to contact us via email infoscihall@gmail.com.
