The ECOCIENCIA Scientific Journal adheres to an open access policy and does not charge any fees to authors neither for submitting manuscripts nor for the publication of accepted articles.

This policy reflects the Editorial Committee’s commitment to the belief that, in today’s knowledge society, free access to academic and scientific information is essential for educators, researchers, and society at large.

ECOCIENCIA offers unrestricted access not only to contributors affiliated with its publishing institution Universidad Tecnológica ECOTEC but also to the wider national and international academic and scientific communities. Through online availability, any interested reader or author may interact with the journal and benefit from the valuable knowledge it disseminates.

The open access model also seeks to enhance the visibility and impact of scholarly work research findings, theoretical reflections, and academic contributions at local, national, and global levels. It fosters the exchange of knowledge among professionals in the fields covered by the journal’s editorial scope, enabling a broader and more direct reach for published content. This amplifies the recognition of each author’s work within the scientific community and supports those who write so that others may read.

As part of this commitment, the Editorial Committee actively encourages authors to disseminate the results, progress, and theoretical contributions of their research, thereby contributing to the continuous creation, distribution, and transformation of knowledge in the information age.
