    Upholding Quality in Scholarly Publishing

    Today, scholarly publishing faces growing challenges—rising submission volumes, a shortage of qualified reviewers, and increasing ethical concerns. Journals must navigate these complexities while maintaining efficiency and upholding research integrity. A well-structured peer review system is essential to ensuring that only high-quality, ethically sound research reaches publication.
