JOURNAL FOR EQUITABLE RESEARCH IN MULTIDISCIPLINARY STUDIES

The Journal for Equitable Research in Multidisciplinary Studies (JERMS) is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to fostering dialogue and collaboration across diverse fields of knowledge. In an era defined by complexity, interconnected challenges, and rapidly evolving global realities, no single discipline can offer adequate solutions in isolation. This journal emerges as a response to the growing need for integrative multidisciplinary research that bridges boundaries between the sciences, social sciences, humanities, technology, linguistics and the arts.

Our vision is to create a scholarly space where ideas converge, intersect, and evolve, enabling both established and emerging scholars to contribute to advancing knowledge with societal impact. By embracing a multidisciplinary framework, we seek to highlight not only the depth of individual disciplines but also the innovation that arises when they are brought into conversation with one another.

The scope of this journal includes, but is not limited to, themes such as sustainable development, health and marginality, castes, gender, climate change and environmental crises, digital transformation, education, governance, culture, arts and ethics. Each issue is designed to showcase research that is rigorous, original, and impactful, while encouraging methodological diversity and intellectual inclusivity. We also aim to provide a platform for cross-sectoral perspectives that can inform policy, practice, and public understanding. The journal contributes to bridging the gap between academia and society, offering insights relevant to local, national, and global contexts. Ultimately, the Journal for Equitable Research in Multidisciplinary Studies (JERMS) itself not merely as an electronic publication but as a community one that nurtures dialogue, promotes collaboration, and inspires solutions to the pressing challenges of our time.
