Aims & Scope
About the Journal Focus and Scope The African Journal of Inter/Multidisciplinary Studies (AJIMS) is committed to advancing knowledge beyond the limits of single-discipline inquiry. Recognizing that many complex social issues cannot be adequately addressed within the boundaries of one field, the journal provides a platform for research that integrates perspectives, methods, and insights from diverse disciplines. AJIMS publishes original research articles that draw from the humanities, social sciences, and science-related fields, provided they demonstrate clear interdisciplinary scope and relevance. Contributions should not only advance disciplinary knowledge but also highlight how different academic foci can intersect to address pressing societal challenges, making them accessible and engaging to a broad readership. In addition to full-length research papers, AJIMS also publishes peer-reviewed short articles and commentaries that engage with topical issues, theoretical debates, or emerging trends without the requirement of empirical research. We recommend that you go through our guidelines for submission before submitting a manuscript. Peer Review Process All articles submitted to the journal are peer-reviewed. The journal has a double-blind peer review policy. Submitted manuscripts first undergo an initial screening by the editorial office for compliance with the journal's guidelines. Manuscripts also undergo a plagiarism detection process at this stage using Turnitin . The plagiarism policy will come to effect at this stage if plagiarism is detected. Manuscripts may be rejected at this stage or returned to authors for resubmission before the review process. Reviewers are given 21-30 days to submit a report. At least two reports are required to make a decision. Where the decisions conflict, the editor can arbitrate the reports or appoint a 3rd reviewer. Reviewers are encouraged to be detailed, critical and constructive in their comments. Reviewers assess manuscripts
