Institutional Membership
Cogitatio’s Institutional Membership Programme is an affordable option that allows authors to freely publish in highly ranked open access journals.
The institution pays an annual flat fee and all articles that have a corresponding author from the institution are published completely free of charge (no APCs).
The annual flat fee is tiered according to the institution’s size and country’s Human Development Index, as a way of demonstrating a commitment to a more equitable publishing landscape, while keeping the costs very reasonable.
