About JSII and Academic Recognition
JSII (Journal of Sustainable Innovation and Impact) is an open access journal focused on sustainability, education, innovation, and societal impact. Its Article Processing Charge (APC) is €380 per accepted article. Academic Excellence Partners receive waivers and discounts that support their researchers and reduce publication costs.
Academic and prestige roles, such as Session Chair, Panel Contributor, JSII Editorial Community member, and Academic Committee representative, are honorary and designed to acknowledge the university’s academic leadership. These recognitions do not carry operational duties and are optional.
All partnerships are subject to availability and final confirmation by TheSustainImpact. Nominations for editorial or committee roles are optional and subject to approval to ensure alignment with academic standards. All manuscripts follow normal editorial screening and peer review, and APC waivers apply only to accepted articles. To discuss tailored options, contact conference@thesustainimpact.com.
Administrative Note: Partnership fees are net amounts. VAT may be added where applicable based on the institution’s invoicing requirements.
