African Journal of Reproductive Health

Chief Editor(s): Friday Okonofua (editor)

Available in Paperback Available in e-editions

Publisher: BrownWalker Press
ISSN: 1118-4841
Frequency: Quarterly
Description:

African Journal of Reproductive Health (AJRH) is a multidisciplinary and international Journal published quarterly (March, June, September, and December) by the Women's Health and Action Research Centre (a non-governmental organization with headquarters in Nigeria). The publication of the journal started in 1997. As of March 2014, 55 editions have been published.

The journal focuses on publishing original research, comprehensive review articles, short reports and commentaries on reproductive health in Africa. It strives to provide a forum for both African and foreign authors working in Africa to share findings about all aspects of reproductive health and also to disseminate innovative, relevant, and useful information on reproductive health throughout the continent.

Instructions for contributors:

The journal will publish original research, review articles, short reports and commentaries. A cover page should accompany each manuscript and should include:
(1) the Title and sub-title (running title -- no more than 5 words);
(2) the name(s) of the author(s);
(3) the affiliation(s) of the author(s);
(4) Abstract;
(5) three to six Keywords for indexing and retrieval purposes; and
(6) Corresponding author's email address and telephone number.

Original Research — The journal welcomes articles reporting on original research, including both quantitative and qualitative studies. Full-length articles should generally not exceed 35 typed, double-spaced pages, excluding tables, figures, and references. The subject matter should be organised under appropriate headings and sub-headings such as: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Acknowledgements.

Review Articles — Comprehensive review articles on all aspects of reproductive health in Africa will also be considered for publication in the journal. Reviews should provide a thorough overview of the topic and should incorporate the most current research. The length of review articles and the organisational headings and sub-headings used are at the author’s discretion.

Short Reports — Brief descriptions of preliminary research findings or interesting case studies will be considered for publication as short reports. The length and organisation of short reports are left to the author’s discretion.

Commentaries — Commentaries or editorials on any aspect of reproductive health in Africa will be considered for publication in the journal. Opinion pieces need not reference previous research, but rather reflect the opinions of the author(s).

No faxed submissions will be accepted. A cover letter accompanying the manuscript should certify that the article has not been previously published and is not being considered for publication elsewhere. All authors are advised to submit an electronic copy along with a hard copy of their manuscript, as this will spare remarkable time in the reviewing and typesetting processes.

The journal will publish manuscripts written in English or French. AJRH will ensure that abstracts of all published papers are translated into English or French, and that both versions accompany the manuscript.
