  • Recent Advances in Humanities Arts and Social Sciences

    Recent Advances in Humanities Arts and Social Sciences (HASS) [ISSN: 2978-1345] is an open access journal that rapidly publishes recent advances in the fields of humanities arts and social sciences. To identify recent advances, the journal works closely with conference, workshop and symposium organisers to identify contributions that represent recent advances in relevant fields, solicit and support substantial and full journal article development, and rapidly publish the fully developed original works for the broadest readers through open access on-line publication, indexing and archiving.

    In addition to papers identified and developed from conferences etc., the journal also invites submissions of regular papers reflecting the recent advances in the areas of humanities, arts and social sciences. Our rolling publication scheme enables rapid dissemination of regular papers. The journal publishes one volume each year including special issues. 

  • Recent Advances in ICT Scientific and Engineering Research

    Recent Advances in ICT Scientific and Engineering Research (RAISER) is an international open access journal that timely publishes recent advances in the fields of scientific and engineering research and information communications technology. To do so, the journal works closely with conference, workshop and symposium organisers to identify contributions that represent recent advances in relevant field, solicit and support substantial and full journal article development, and rapidly publish the fully developed original works for the broadest readers through open access on-line publication, indexing and archiving.

    The journal does not appoint a long-term Editor-in-Chief and Associate Editors. Each issue is themed often related to an identified conference and edited by a guest editor and their team, typically, the technical or paper chair and technical committee of a conference. On other occasions, when themes of specific importance and timeliness emerge and are identified by the journal, guest editors will be invited and call for papers announced. The journal terms this as “direct mode”.

  • New Perspectives on Languages

    New Perspectives on Languages (NPL) [ISSN: 3033-490X] is an open access, peer-reviewed and copy-edited journal concerning all aspects of second and foreign languages. The journal encourages emerging interdisciplinary research pertaining to language education and language practices in multilingual societies and increasingly digitalising environments of learning and communication. The journal aligns with the wider intellectual movement of decolonising knowledge, language, and education, and focuses distinctly on research of/for underrepresented languages, minoritized and endangered languages, less widely taught languages, and other smaller languages as well as alternative approaches and pedagogies. The journal promotes quality work of early career researchers and all other stages of career, particularly those of the Global Majority and the Global South. We aim to give equal voice to researchers and practitioners and foster intercommunication of theoretical research and practice-based studies in teaching and pedagogy. The journal publishes two issues per annum, plus guest-edited special issues where there is an interest.

    We welcome submissions that contribute to one or more of the relevant subareas of applied linguistics, sociolinguistics and pedagogical studies, including but not limited to:
