Article Processing Charge

To promote open access and encourage the dissemination of quality research without financial barriers, SAPS does not currently charge article processing fees.

This means:
• No submission charges
• No peer review fees
• No publication charges
• All articles are freely available online without paywalls

The journal is fully open access and aims to support early-career researchers, independent scientists, and scholars from low- and middle-income countries.

Note: SAPS reserves the right to revise its APC policy in the future to maintain journal operations, with prior notice given to all stakeholders.
