Peer Review and Refereed
A refereed journal, also known as a peer-reviewed journal, is a type of academic or scholarly journal in which the articles submitted for publication are reviewed by experts in the field before they are published. This process is called peer review, and it ensures that the research is of high quality, reliable, and meets the standards of the academic community.

Here’s how it works
- Submission : An author submits a paper to the journal for publication.
- Initial Review : The journal’s editor reviews the submission for its relevance, quality, and fit for the journal.
- Peer Review : If the paper passes the initial review, it is sent to experts (peers) in the field who evaluate the research’s validity, significance, and contribution to the field. These experts provide feedback and recommendations.
- Revisions : The author may be asked to revise the paper based on the reviewers’ feedback
