About Us
Publishing research that travels across languages and borders
Our mission
Rigorous, open, and accessible scholarship
We believe the value of research lies in how widely it can be read, tested, and used. Our mission is to give researchers a trustworthy home for their work — with careful peer review, professional production, and permanent open access — and to make that work discoverable by readers everywhere.
Founded in 2022 in Tehran, with an international office in Dubai, IMAQPRESS works with editors and reviewers in more than twenty countries. We are proud to publish in both English and Persian, connecting regional scholarship with the global research community.
What guides us

Integrity
Every manuscript is screened for originality and reviewed by independent experts. Editorial decisions are based on scholarly merit alone.

Bilingual scholarship
We publish in English and Persian and bring the intellectual traditions of West and Central Asia into global conversation.
Equity
Low article processing charges and automatic waivers keep publishing open to authors from every region and institution.
