Peer Review Process

Submitted papers must undergo a strict peer-review process by at least one reviewer who is an expert in the field of the particular article through an anonymous review process. All manuscripts are sent for critical review by Reviewers. The review process is a double-masked peer review.

As soon as the review process is complete, the author will be notified via email about the acceptance or rejection of the author's contribution for publication in the Hafizah Journal of Innovation and Community Service (HJICS). If the author is encouraged to resubmit a revised article, any suggested changes to the manuscript will be reviewed by the same expert reviewers and editors in the same section. Responses to comments should be clearly stated in the article, and resubmissions should be accompanied by a letter with a detailed response to the reviewer's comments. The review process takes 4-9 weeks
