Appointment of Editorial Board Members

The Editor-in-Chief is appointed by the Nomination Committee for a term of three years, renewable once. They are preferably a Full Professor or an Associate Professor with HDR or an equivalent qualification.

The Deputy Editor-in-Chief is appointed by the Editor-in-Chief from among the current editors. This role is prioritized as a potential successor to the Editor-in-Chief at the end of their term.

Editors serve a renewable four-year term. Their number may vary depending on the volume of submissions to the journal to prevent overburdening the editorial team. There are four pathways to becoming an editor:

  1. Application to become an Editor: Researchers interested in the role respond to calls for applications published on dedicated platforms. Once selected, editors manage articles assigned by the Editor-in-Chief, oversee peer reviews, organize revision cycles, make decisions on articles (acceptance or rejection), and consult the editorial team in case of issues. Editors are expected to handle at least three articles simultaneously and may also contribute to writing editorials.
  2. Proposal for a Special Issue: Leaders of approved special issue projects become editors for the duration of their special issue. Their responsibilities align with those of regular editors, including managing reviews, overseeing revision cycles, and making editorial decisions. They may also write editorials related to the accepted articles in their special issue.
  3. Invitation to the Editorial Board: Researchers internationally recognized for their expertise may be invited to join the editorial board. Their role includes ensuring the scientific quality of publications and promoting the journal internationally.
  4. Emeritus Editors-in-Chief: Former Editors-in-Chief remain involved with the journal as long as they are active in research. They contribute to strategic discussions and editorial policy decisions and may participate in the editorial board’s activities during key discussions.

Editorial assistants are appointed by the Editor-in-Chief to support them in all their tasks. This role is non-decision-making.
