Last updated: 04/23/2025

The Future Studies Research Journal is an open access journal, meaning that all its content is freely available at no cost to the user or their institution.

Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without asking prior permission from the publisher or the authors — as long as they respect the terms of the Creative Commons license adopted by the journal.

This policy follows the open access definition outlined by the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI), ensuring that the scientific knowledge published is widely available to promote the global democratization of knowledge and increase the impact of the research.
