Plagiarism Policy

  • Plagiarism and self-plagiarism are not allowed.
  • The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
  • An author should not in general publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
  • Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.

The Working Process:

  1. Editorial Team of INDONESIAN JOURNAL OF SUSTAINABILITY will check the manuscript on offline and online database manually (checking proper citation and quotation);
  2. Editorial Team will check manuscripts submitted using TURNITIN and Google-based search engines. Depending on the level of originality and similarities with other documents, Chief Editor along with Section Editors will decide on whether to immediately reject the manuscripts, contact authors for further clarifications, or to proceed to the blind peer-review process.
