JJES is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research, reviews, and scholarly analyses in Education, Business, Arts & Humanities, and Social & Behavioral Sciences. It aims to advance knowledge through work that is theoretically robust, empirically grounded, and interdisciplinary.
The journal welcomes both global and region-specific studies, with a particular focus on connecting Southeast Asian perspectives to international academic discourse. Comparative and cross-regional research is especially encouraged.
JJES follows a quarterly schedule with rolling publication. Accepted articles are published online immediately upon editorial completion, assigned DOIs, and included in scheduled issues for archiving.
All submissions undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review by at least two independent reviewers. JJES adheres to COPE guidelines and maintains high standards of ethics, transparency, and editorial integrity.
