Open Access

Policy

All Avestia journals are fully open access. Published articles are freely available online upon publication, without subscription or registration requirements. Publishing costs are supported through article processing charges requested only after acceptance, as described in the Author Guidelines.

Authors retain copyright. Articles are published under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License (CC BY 3.0), which permits readers to copy, share, redistribute, and adapt the work for any purpose, including commercially, provided appropriate credit is given, a link to the licence is included, and any changes are indicated.

Open-access status and payment of article processing charges do not affect editorial decisions. Research and review manuscripts undergo the journal’s peer-review and editorial evaluation processes, and acceptance is based on scholarly merit, relevance to the journal’s aims and scope, and compliance with editorial and ethical requirements.

For authors

Authors retain copyright and authorize Avestia to publish their articles under CC BY 3.0. No submission or peer-review fee is charged; the applicable article processing charge is requested only after editorial acceptance, as detailed in the Author Guidelines.

For readers

Readers may access full-text articles without charge and may read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, link to, and adapt the material in accordance with CC BY 3.0. Reuse must include appropriate attribution, a link to the licence, and an indication of whether changes were made.
