Description

discussion needed help wanted

Create a resource that can be used to guide students and early career researchers in Africa to publish open access, and at subsidized or waived article processing charge.

In most Kenyan Institutions, students are required to publish at least one paper at Msc level. The common question is: where do we publish at low cost? To help students and early career scientists take decisions on where to publish, we intend to create an open resource which provides basic information from the journal: APC, whether there is a waiver for Kenyan students, etc.
