02Publisher and Management

Publisher: Lembaga Penelitian dan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat (LITPAM), Indonesia. The publisher maintains the journal platform and publication administration. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for editorial decisions, supported by appointed editors and reviewers. Editorial decisions are made on scholarly merit and compliance with journal policies, not the payment of publication fees.

Ownership and management disclosure. LITPAM is identified as MDJ’s publishing organization. If legal ownership, editorial operation, or institutional partnership is arranged through a separate entity or formal agreement, those distinct roles must be identified explicitly by the publisher. A contact person’s university affiliation does not mean that institution owns the journal.

Editorial board members, their roles and institutional affiliations are presented on the Editorial Team page. The publisher and editorial office should maintain accurate, current names and affiliations.

03Publication Schedule

MDJ is published biannually, with regular issues in May and November. The publishing schedule refers to the intended month of issue release, not a promise that a newly submitted manuscript will appear in a particular issue. Manuscripts are handled through the online editorial system and are published only after the required editorial, review and production stages are completed.
