The AJCE is an open-access journal and does not charge readers or institutions for access. There are no charges for manuscript submission, article processing, publication of manuscripts, or color reproduction of photographs. There is also no waiver policy. The ASEAN Journal of Community Engagement offsets the facilities, including English Proofreading and long-term archiving with Bepress Digital Common because no fees are charged for access, submission, and publication.

The use of articles is free of charge with attributions to the authors. For authors, there are no charges for manuscript submission, article processing, publication of manuscripts, or color reproduction of photographs.

Peer Review Process

All articles submitted to the editorial staff will undergo Initial Screening by the Editorial Board, including a Similarity Check with iThenticate to prevent any suspected plagiarism in the manuscripts. Afterward, the articles will be sent to peer reviewers for the next selection step, the Double-Blind Review Process. Each manuscript will be peer-reviewed in terms of the substantial and technical aspects. The peer review team consists of all experienced reviewers who manage and publish national and international academic journals. After the review process, the articles will be returned to the authors for revision. A similarity check of the article will be conducted again before it is published.
