Journal Governance
Editorial Board
The EB will include national representatives of each of the participating Somali universities. They have a final say in formal decisions regarding the development of the journal. They make policy decisions and approve the journal’s set regulations necessary for the sustainability of the journal, while using their professional influence to raise the profile of the journal and promote its evidence-based policies and practices. They may also offer their technical expertise as mentors to young researchers from their respective universities and guide them on their outputs for subsequent publication.

International Advisors
The International advisors will act as ambassadors for the journal and assist the editorial team by advancing the submission of articles and safeguarding the journal’s reputation. They could be assigned to review articles in the areas of their research interests and bridge any potential gap in the peer-review process. The International Advisors will provide information and suggestions for the journal’s future contents and operational direction and participate in consultation meetings where ideas for structuring the journal scope and direction are being discussed. They also help in identifying topics of interest and potential article ideas and provide a network of potential contributors/authors.
The international Advisors are experts in a wide range of areas within global & public health and health systems research.
