Author Fees

NJRST does not currently charge article processing charges, submission fees, editorial processing fees, page charges, colour charges or publication fees. It supports the Diamond Open Access business model.

There is no fee payable at submission, during peer review, at acceptance or after publication. Editorial decisions are made independently of financial considerations.

If the journal introduces any author fees in future, the fees, waiver conditions and payment procedures will be clearly displayed on the journal website before they take effect. Authors who submitted manuscripts before the introduction of any new fees will not be charged retrospectively unless this was clearly communicated at the time of submission.

NJRST is published by the National Commission on Research, Science and Technology (NCRST). The journal’s publishing model is intended to support access to scholarly communication and the dissemination of research relevant to Namibia’s knowledge-based and innovation-driven development.
