Aims & Scope

EPSIR (European Public & Social Innovation Review) with ISSN 2529-9824, is an interdisciplinary journal founded by SINNERGIAK SOCIAL INNOVATION (University of the Basque Country), which, starting in 2024, is being edited by HISIN (History of Information Systems).

Its mission is to disseminate the creation, development, and implementation of innovative solutions to tackle social challenges and improve the quality of life for individuals and communities.

Through comprehensive research that results in articles, it aims to generate a positive impact on areas such as education, health, the environment, gender equality, social inclusion, and others, as well as exploring implications for innovation policies and/or the management of social innovation.

In line with its mission, EPSIR is fully open access.

Additionally, starting in 2024, it has adopted a continuous publication system, where articles are published individually in an open-access electronic format as soon as the editorial process is completed.

This frequency modality speeds up dissemination, facilitates feedback, and keeps scientific knowledge relevant in real-time, promoting collaboration and academic advancement.

Articles submitted to EPSIR undergo double-blind peer review, ensuring unbiased, objective, and transparent arbitration, which facilitates the inclusion of the articles in reference databases, repositories, and international indexes.
