dc.description.abstract | This statement by the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf) addresses the critical, yet under-recognised, contributions of editors and peer reviewers in academic publishing. These roles are essential for upholding research quality and ensuring the integrity of scholarly discourse, yet current academic reward structures often overlook their value. ASSAf highlights the need for university and science council administrators to formally acknowledge and support editorial work, proposing specific recommendations to enhance recognition within performance appraisals. By strengthening the recognition of these roles, ASSAf aims to sustain a credible and effective scholarly publishing ecosystem that supports knowledge dissemination and contributes to national and global research development. | |
