Scientific publishing: a developmental role for the World Psychiatric Association

Action Plan of the WPA Secretary for Publications

“…In line with the focus of the previous committee for scientific publications, under the leadership of M. Riba, we will also develop, as much as possible, adequate assistance to Member Societies to get their national or regional journals properly indexed. In that perspective, we will look for adequate ways to provide psychiatrists worldwide with assistance and support to increase their ability to publish scientific papers in English, such as bilingual online journals (French‐English, Spanish‐English, Portuguese‐English), methodological and writing assistance, online courses on “how to publish in indexed journals”.…”
