Reviewer Anonymity Policy
Global Journals is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of the peer review process. Reviewer identities remain anonymous to authors, fellow reviewers, and the public.

Reviewers may be acknowledged collectively for their contributions without linking names to specific manuscripts.
