Supplements are a way for groups of authors to publish related articles to provide insight into a topic. Because our niche is emphasizing the *how* of implementing global health programs, we are most interested in supplements that focus on what does (and doesn't) work in programs.
GHSP has published the following supplements:
- March 2021: Communities as the Cornerstone of Primary Health Care: Learning, Policy, and Practice
- August 2019: Saving Women’s Lives Through Emergency Obstetric Care and Voluntary Family Planning
- March 2019: Saving Mothers, Giving Life: A Systems Approach to reducing Maternal and Perinatal Deaths in Uganda and Zambia
- October 2018: Digital Health and Health Systems of the Future
- August 2016: Long-Acting Reversible Contraception Crucial to Meeting Unmet Need Goals by 2020: Key Papers from the 2016 International Conference on Family Planning
- July 2016: Introducing Early Infant Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention: Considerations for Policy, Safety, Cost, Acceptability and Demand
If you are interested in proposing a supplement, please send us a concept paper that includes:
- The working title of the supplement
- Purpose
- Suggested Guest Editors
- List of the articles to be published (including abstract and authors if available)
- The date you would like the issue published
- Funding information
When planning a supplement, please keep the following in mind:
- Manuscripts should be solicited from a variety of groups working on the topic.
- Make sure you have strong author representation from country-based implementers.
- Supplement articles go through the same process as articles in our regular issues and so must be peer reviewed by 2-3 reviewers.
- A GHSP Associate Editor will be assigned to your supplement to review the articles for adherence to GHSP standards.
- All articles should be submitted at least 6 months prior to the desired publication date.
- Supplements are edited in the style and format of GHSP.
- Supplements are published on the GHSP website, promoted to all alert subscribers, and indexed by numerous sites including PubMed, MEDLINE, and Web of Science.
- There is a fee to publish supplements.
