Advertising and revenue

Where the money comes from, and why it has no bearing on what is published.

Revenue

Publication is funded by article processing charges and by Caravel Press. The charge, and who is exempt from it, is set out in full on the charges page.

Advertising

Research and Reviews in Sustainability carries no advertising of any kind. No advertisement appears on any article page, and no advertising is interleaved with content.

Direct marketing

We do not send unsolicited invitations to submit. Where we write to a researcher directly, it is because they have published with us, reviewed for us, agreed to serve on a board, or asked us to. We do not buy mailing lists.

Metrics

We are guided by DORA and do not use journal-level metrics to represent the quality of an individual article or researcher. Any metric shown on this site names the index it comes from and links to it.

This policy applies to every journal we publish. Last revised 28 August 2026.
