Dear Authors,

Following a change in the journal management policy of Universitas Sebelas Maret, under which Region: Jurnal Pembangunan Wilayah dan Perencanaan Partisipatif is published, an Article Processing Charge (APC) of IDR 1,000,000 will apply to all articles published starting from Vol 22 No 1 (January 2027).

Please note the following:

The APC is charged only after a manuscript has been accepted for publication. No fee is charged for submission or during the peer-review process.
This policy applies to all new submissions as well as to manuscripts currently under review that will be published in or after the January 2027 issue.
Authors whose manuscripts are currently in process will be contacted individually by email and asked whether they wish to continue with the publication process or withdraw their manuscripts. Withdrawal is free of charge.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause, and we thank all authors for their understanding and continued trust in Region.
