Publication Policy

The Journal of Animal Law, Ethics and One Health (LEOH) invites authors to submit original papers that have not been previously published and are not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Contributions are accepted on a rolling basis and are published online as soon as they are accepted and cleared for publication. Before the LEOH can publish a journal article (or any other journal content), authors need to sign a Publishing Agreement. The LEOH does not charge submission and publication fees.

The journal is organized into annual volumes. The pagination of the annual volumes will follow the pagination of the individual contribution. E.g.,

Smith, Jane (2023). Animal Rights in the Anthropocene. Journal of Animal Law, Ethics and One Health (LEOH), 24-45. DOI:

A Digital Object Identifier from the CrossRef organisation (a unique, persistent identifying number for documents published online) will be awarded to each contribution.

Comprehensive volumes drawing from the published contributions will be published online by the start of each following year. The editors reserve the right to publish printed volumes at a later stage.
