Article Publication Charge (APC)

Punakawan is a scientific journal based on the Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform, committed to supporting the open, inclusive, and equitable dissemination of knowledge. As part of our efforts to ensure the sustainability of journal management and service quality, the publication of articles in Punakawan is subject to an Article Publication Charge (APC) of IDR 250,000.

Despite the APC, we guarantee that no fees are charged during the manuscript submission or peer-review process. The APC is only applied once a manuscript has been accepted for publication.

This policy reflects our attempt to balance the principles of open access with the operational sustainability of the journal. The APC funds are used to support editorial processes, system management, indexing, and overall quality improvement of the journal.

We believe that valuable knowledge should be accessible to everyone. Through this policy, Punakawan continues to promote broad academic collaboration and contributes to the development of an open, transparent, and sustainable research ecosystem.
