Open Access Policy

At Revue Internationale du Law & Education (RIDLE), we believe that knowledge must be disseminated freely, fairly, and internationally. The future of law and education research is to shape policy, inform practice, and contribute to a better society, and such research should be accessible to all without financial or access barriers.

This is why RIDLE follows a full Open Access model, meaning all published works are freely and permanently available to readers worldwide.

What Open Access Means

When you publish with RIDLE:

  • Your article is published online immediately after acceptance
  • Anyone can read, download, and share it without fees or registration
  • Institutions and individuals do not need to pay subscription charges

Open access allows research to reach the widest possible audience including scholars, students, policymakers, practitioners, and community advocates.

Why We Support Open Access

Our open access policy reflects our commitment to:

  • Knowledge Equity: Removing barriers so researchers everywhere can access knowledge
  • Global Engagement: Encouraging international and interdisciplinary academic dialogue
  • Greater Impact: Making research easier to discover, cite, and apply
  • Academic Transparency: Promoting openness and trust within the research community

By providing open access to research, we aim to amplify diverse voices and ideas that help advance understanding in law and education.

Responsible Use of Open Access Content

Although articles are freely accessible, we expect users to:

  • Always properly cite the original author(s) and RIDLE as the source
  • Use the material for non-commercial academic and educational purposes
  • Obtain copyright permission for any commercial use or major modifications

This protects the intellectual contributions of authors while encouraging responsible and ethical sharing of knowledge.

Our Commitment to Access and Integrity

The Revue Internationale du Law & Education is proud to be an open-access journal. We are committed to publishing research that is accessible, inclusive, and impactful without restrictions created by subscriptions or access limitations.

We believe open access strengthens both scholarship and society by making knowledge available to everyone.
