Reviewers

In 2024, South Sudan marked a significant milestone in the academic and scientific sector with the establishment of the South Sudan Scientific Multi-Journal Research Publication (SSSMJRP). This initiative addresses the critical gap in disseminating scientific knowledge within the nation, as numerous researchers from major universities have traditionally stored their thesis work solely in physical archives, without pursuing publication in recognised journals.

SSSMJRP aims to revolutionise the landscape of scientific communication in South Sudan by providing a robust platform for the publication of diverse research findings. The journal seeks to enhance the visibility of local research and foster a culture of scholarly exchange that adheres to international standards of academic excellence.

To achieve these ambitious objectives, SSSMJRP is currently inviting applications for roles within its Reviewers, Editorial Board, and Governing Body. This call extends to seasoned academics and professionals with a background in scientific research who are committed to nurturing and guiding the growth of South Sudan’s scholarly community. Successful applicants will play a pivotal role in shaping the editorial direction and governance of the journal, ensuring its integrity, quality, and relevance in the global scientific arena.
