I encourage you to contribute a research or comprehensive
review article for consideration for publication in Sustainability,
an international open access journal which provides an
advanced forum for research findings in areas related to
sustainability and sustainable development. The journal
publishes original research articles, reviews, conference
proceedings (peer reviewed full articles) and communications.
I am confident you will find the journal contributes to
enhancing understanding of sustainability and fostering
initiatives and applications of sustainability-based measures
and activities.
