Article Processing Charges

We advise that 3 types of articles can be submitted. That is,

Book Review Articles:
In this category, we advise that the author avoids footnoting. Additionally, we do not expect authors to prolong them beyond 5 pages. Nevertheless, they will be expected to submit handling fee of $20 upon acceptance.

Short Messages with a clear problem statement:
Like the above book reviews, the author’s will not be expected to write beyond 5 pages. Upon acceptance, each author will be expected to pay $20 per write-up. In such short messages, the author is expected to come out clearly with his or her problem statement, and make a bold attempt to solve the issue at hand. It should be on topics of global or national interest.

Regular Articles:
This is where original research articles, above 5 pages, at 1.5 spacing or double spaced, is expected to feature. This type of article forms the core purpose for the journal. It should describe new and carefully analyzed data, where, in some cases, experimental procedures or methodological considerations must be put clearly. Results should be provided with clarity and precision. In regard to length, the material under discussion should determine this. Nevertheless, a good author will avoid going beyond 7, 000 words for a journal article.  From 3, 500 to 7, 000 words, we charge USD120,  which depends on currency exchange rates for East Africans: Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, South Sudan and Somalia.  We also charge USD 200 for other African countries (outside Eastern Africa); and USD 400 for authors from Europe and the Americas. For institutions where the subvention fee is paid for, by the respective institution, rather than the individual author, we charge USD 500.
