Publishing Ethics

The Conference Organizing Committee (COC) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of Code of Conduct and to supporting ethical research practices.  All published articles to contain clear and accurate attribution of authorship. It is the responsibility of the author to ensure that all authors that contributed to the work are fairly acknowledged and that the published author list accurately reflects individual contributions. COC shall take every effort to ensure that editors, peer reviewers, and scrutiny committees shall treat all submissions respectfully, in confidence, and in accordance with standard ethical guidelines. COC expects that all individuals submitting manuscripts to this conference shall abide by established publishing standards and ethics.

Peer Review Process

Selection of articles, for possible publication, will have a three stages elimination process. In the first stage, an internal scrutiny committee will first check relevance and appropriateness of each article, according to the decided theme and sub-themes of the conference. Secondly, all articles will go through mandatory similarity/ plagiarism check using Turnitin.  Articles having a similarity percentage less than 15 % will be sent to the next stage. In the third stage, all the articles passing through previous two stages, will be sent for double-blind review. Articles, after removing authors’ identity, will be sent to two subject experts (outside the host organisation), who are minimum Associate Professors. Subject to availability, attempts will be made to get at least 40 percent reviewers from abroad. Authors will be finally asked to incorporate the suggested changes/ revisions, if asked by any/ both reviewers.

Selected and presented papers will be published by the Taylor & Francis Group in the form of conference proceedings subject to blind review.
