Please note that changes made to the World Bank list of low-income economies every July. These changes may take time to be reflected in our submission systems. For any queries, please contact us.
We acknowledge authors that do not meet these criteria; hence we consider the discretionary author waiver requests. In this instance, please email us with supporting evidence why the waiver or discount is applicable to your circumstances. You should also include the following:
- The affiliation and country of residence of all authors
- Details of where the research was conducted.
- Confirmation of all research grant funding received
If we have reason to believe an author has provided false information as part of their waiver request, we reserve the right to rescind any discount offered, and the full charges will apply.
Our discounts and waivers are only available to submissions to full open access journals and only applies to corresponding authors.
