Publication Fee and Waiver Policy

The Brooklyn Research and Publishing Institute (BRPI) operates under a Gold Open Access model, ensuring that all published articles are freely accessible to the public without subscription barriers.

Publication Fee

Authors from high- and middle-income countries are required to pay a publication fee of USD 400 per accepted manuscript. A reduced fee of USD 300 applies to authors from low-income countries, as well as to PhD scholars and unemployed researchers or academics.

Waiver Conditions

The USD 100 fee reduction for PhD scholars and unemployed researchers is only applicable if the manuscript has no more than two authors (including the eligible author). If a paper has more than two authors, the standard publication fee of USD 400 applies regardless of the authors' academic or economic status.

Low-income countries are defined as those with a Gross National Income (GNI) per capita below USD 3,000.
