Publication Ethics
Authors Responsibilities :
Manuscripts submitted to the journal GANITA will be considered for publication with the understanding that the same work has not been published and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. In particular, the authors have the following responsibilities:
• To produce an original manuscript regarding text, figures, graphics, data, etc.;
• To cite appropriately all works of other authors used in the paper;
• To use the journal guidelines.
Corresponding Author
Regarding articles whose number of authors is bigger than one, a corresponding author should be nominated. The corresponding author will be responsible for the manuscript during the whole processing of the paper: from the submission to the publication, including the review and submission or revised version. The corresponding author should ensure that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.
Co-authors
Each co-author is responsible for the correct presentation of the article and its contents, assuring the research originality and the fact that the article hasn’t been published in other journal.

Conflict of Interest
