EDITORIAL BOARD

CHAKIÑAN, Social Sciences, and Humanities Journal has been conceived to promote the free and unrestricted dissemination of knowledge on an international scale, from a public entity. This implies particularities of the administrative dependency on this type of organization. 

As a consequence, the organizational management structure (OMS) of the Chakiñan Journal was designed to respond to these particularities. The journal was also projected with a futuristic vision focused on positioning it in the national and international scientific community of the region.

Furthermore, due to the diversity of countries to which the members of the OMS belong, and the time difference which limits the possibility of holding face-to-face, and virtual meetings, the predominant form of communication and exchange of information is through e-mail.

The Editorial Board is the part of the organizational structure in charge of managing the editorial process from the reception of manuscripts to their publication, as well as the proper functioning of the journal in all aspects, for which the following Organizational Units were established:

EDITORIAL TEAM:

The editorial staff is made up of research professors from the Universidad Nacional de Chimborazo. The editorial team assumes a management philosophy based on continuous improvement so as to respond to good editorial practices that embrace trends and demands from the International Databases, which dictate the guidelines in terms of scientific production.

The functions of the editorial team are: to formally and legally represent the publication, the design and application of the editorial and scientific policy of the journal, the editorial and ethical standards, the coordination and guidance of the activity of authors, members of the OMS and collaborators, the control of the assigned resources, holding systematic meetings to analyze and assess the work carried out by the different actors, ensuring the quality of the publication, compliance with what is established and proposing actions for improvement, which are submitted to consultation and assessment by the members of the Editorial Board.
