JGZ Tijdschrift voor Jeugdgezondheidszorg (TJGZ) is aimed at professionals in youth health care, such as youth physicians and youth nurses. The journal keeps professionals in this field informed about important practical experiences, research findings, and related topics relevant to preventive care for children and young people aged 0-23 years. Eveliene Dera-de Bie, editor-in-chief of TJGZ, is eager to share knowledge and contribute to the development of the field.
Why collaborate with Openjournals?
Eveliene Dera-de Bie: “TJGZ switched to Openjournals because the platform aligns well with the journal’s open-access mission. This way, we can publish our articles under the diamond open-access model. Additionally, the support and accessibility of Openjournals add great value!”
Open Science and Open Access
“Open Science and Open Access are extremely important to TJGZ, as they ensure that research is accessible to everyone. Of course, there are challenges, such as increasing visibility and continuously improving the process.”
Working with Openjournals
The experience with Openjournals is described as positive. “The platform makes everything clear and helps us smoothly navigate the peer-review process. Sometimes it takes time to get used to new features, but any issues are always resolved quickly.”
Future plans and challenges
“We see great potential in collaborating with Openjournals to increase our visibility. Our goal? To remain an accessible and inspiring professional journal where young researchers and students can also share their work. Naturally, there are challenges, such as keeping processes efficient, but we also see opportunities, for example, in the use of AI.”
