Ensuring transparency and reproducibility in global health research.
Promoting Research Transparency
IJGH encourages authors to share supporting data and materials to enhance the reproducibility of published research.
All empirical manuscripts must include a Data Availability Statement:
- "De-identified data available at [repository URL]."
- "Data available from corresponding author upon reasonable request."
- "Data cannot be shared due to local ethics board restrictions."
General Purpose
Figshare, Zenodo, Dryad, Harvard Dataverse
Health-Specific
ICPSR, WHO Global Health Observatory, DHS Program
Global health research often involves vulnerable populations:
- Ensure proper de-identification before sharing
- Consider local data governance requirements
- Obtain appropriate permissions from ethics boards
- Respect community ownership of indigenous knowledge
If your manuscript includes previously published figures or data, obtain written permission from the copyright holder and include appropriate attribution.

Some authors are required by their funders to make their research publicly available. Under the 2024 NIH Public Access Policy, Author Accepted Manuscripts accepted for publication on or after July 1, 2025, must be submitted to PubMed Central upon acceptance and made publicly available without embargo on the official date of publication.
What IJGH provides: IJGH publishes the Version of Record under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence. The journal also permits authors to deposit their Author Accepted Manuscript in funder-designated repositories. Upon acceptance, we confirm the accepted manuscript version and record the funder and grant information supplied by the authors.
Author responsibility: IJGH does not currently deposit manuscripts in PubMed Central on behalf of authors. Authors are responsible for determining which funder requirements apply, initiating the appropriate repository submission and completing any required NIHMS approval steps.
Eligibility and successful processing through PubMed Central or NIHMS are determined according to the relevant funder and NIH/NLM requirements.
Important: The deposit of an individual article in PubMed Central may result in that article appearing in PubMed. It does not mean that IJGH is indexed in MEDLINE, included in the PMC Journal List or that all IJGH articles are available through PubMed. The journal's current coverage is listed on the Indexing page.
