Aims & Scope

BMJ Global Health is an Open Access, online journal from BMJ dedicated to publishing high-quality peer-reviewed content relevant to those involved in global health, including: policy makers, funders, researchers, clinicians and, crucially, frontline healthcare workers. The Journal covers all aspects of global health with particular interest in submissions that address the underfunded area of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Research across all study phases and designs is welcome, from study protocols to phase I trials to meta-analyses, including small or specialist studies. Opinionated discussions on controversial topics are welcomed. BMJ Global Health will adhere to BMJ’s rigorous standards of peer-review and all papers will be considered on the basis of ethical and methodological soundness rather than their novelty, significance, or relevance to any particular group. The Journal will operate a fast submission and review process with continuous publication online to ensure that timely, up-to-date research is available worldwide.
