Diversity, Equity, Inclusivity, and Accessibility (DEIA):
The International Journal of Emerging Science and Engineering (IJESE) invites submissions from historically marginalised scholars within the academic landscape, encompassing a broad spectrum of individuals whose viewpoints and experiences, shaped by their geographic backgrounds, institutional affiliations, gender identities, (dis)abilities, language proficiency, and various other distinctive characteristics, are of immense value to our academic community [1]. The journal is deeply committed to fostering an inclusive environment that amplifies a rich tapestry of diverse voices and perspectives, providing a vital platform for those whose narratives may often go unheard in traditional academic circles [2]. Through this commitment, the journal aims to enrich discourse and scholarship by highlighting the invaluable insights that these underrepresented scholars bring to the field.
The International Journal of Emerging Science and Engineering (IJESE) is committed to fostering equitable opportunities that embrace and honour the diversity inherent in all individuals, regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, religion, or socioeconomic status. The journal stands against any forms of bias, discrimination, and racism, striving to foster an environment where everyone feels valued and respected. The Editor-in-Chief is deeply committed to these principles, ensuring they are integrated into every aspect of editorial practices, including a thorough and transparent approach to article submissions and a rigorous peer-review process [3], all aimed at cultivating a fair and inclusive academic community. Through these efforts, the journal seeks to promote dialogue and understanding among diverse perspectives, inspiring scholars, including historically marginalised ones, to contribute and enrich the scholarly landscape.
