GPS Journal
Peer-reviewed, transdisciplinary, and built for uptake — scholarship that expects to be used.
Aims & scope
The GPS Journal publishes research that crosses the platform's four pillars — knowledge generation, technology and innovation, enterprise, and policy and public leadership — with particular attention to plural knowledge systems, research-to-policy pathways, and locally grounded innovation.
Transdisciplinary and trans-regional submissions are the norm, not the exception. Every article carries a practitioner-facing abstract, because scholarship here expects an audience beyond the academy.
Publication model
- Open access, no author fees for Global South-based scholars
- Double-anonymous peer review
- First issue: 2027, alongside the Kigali Crossroads Week
