ARTICLE APPROVAL STAGES

The evaluation process for manuscripts submitted to the Technical and Scientific Journal Cidades Verdes will be carried out in four stages, aiming for a final decision on publication within a maximum of 120 (one hundred and twenty) days.

  • Stage I – Screening (Editor-in-Chief) – Analysis of the submitted work’s alignment with the journal’s editorial scope and its publication potential.

  • Stage II – Preliminary Analysis (Associate Editor) – The manuscript must be original and unpublished. It will be submitted to anti-plagiarism software (Plagius or Turnitin® – Plagiarism Prevention) to detect any suspected plagiarism in documents available on the Internet.

  • Stage III – Peer Review Process (Scientific Committee) – Double-blind review: evaluation of the article by two expert reviewers, who will provide comments, indicate necessary corrections, and recommend either its publication or its archiving. Stage III may involve multiple rounds of review, aiming to improve the articles. The editorial board may also add improvement suggestions to the evaluations to align the article with the journal’s scope.

  • Stage IV – Finalization Process (Associate Editor) – After acceptance, authors must send, via email (editoraanap@gmail.com), the article (in its Portuguese version) along with the required declarations.
