Editors play a vital role in journal publishing by ensuring the development of high-quality published research in their subject fields.

The editor is expected to actively engage with editorial board members and corresponding authors regularly. Editors have the right to seek assistance from esteemed editorial board members, and may invite other members if required. Editorial board members are required to review a fixed, set minimum number of submitted manuscripts annually, based on their expertise.

Maintaining the journal’s standards and the quality of its papers are the primary responsibilities of the editor. In addition to this, the editor ensures that the content is accessible and engaging for the target audience.

The editor of the journal has to focus on many fronts, these are:

• Overseeing the submission and review process to make sure the publication of high quality papers
• Clear instructions to authors during manuscript submission
• Adherence to the double-blind, peer-review process and publication policy
• Addressing misconduct and handling complaints
