Open Access Policy

Mandau: Jurnal Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat provides immediate open access to all published content. The journal believes that making research freely available to the public supports global knowledge exchange, accelerates community development, and increases the visibility and impact of community service initiatives.

All articles are published under an open access model, which allows users to:

• Read

• Download

• Copy

• Distribute

• Print

• Search

• Link to the full text

without financial, legal, or technical barriers, as long as proper citation is provided.

The journal does not require user registration to access articles. Open access ensures that academics, practitioners, policymakers, community members, and the general public can benefit from the published works without restrictions.

Mandau fully aligns with the principle that publicly shared knowledge contributes to stronger, evidence-based community empowerment efforts.
