Insights (Bhalwal) International Journal of Humanities, Management, and Social Sciences (IIJHMSS) is a peer-reviewed social sciences journal that addresses contemporary social issues through original research drawn from management sciences, arts and the humanities. It is published monthly under the auspices of the Global Heritage Research Center for Languages and Literature and operates as a double-blind, open-access scholarly platform, welcoming submissions from scholars, researchers and practitioners from Pakistan and across the globe.

IIJHMSS conceptualises the social sciences as a connecting framework that links society, culture, institutions and human behaviour with knowledge produced in management and the humanities, examining how social realities shape—and are shaped by—organisations, leadership, education, public policy, communication, language, ethics, media and cultural life.

Aims

• To publish high-quality, peer-reviewed research that advances knowledge in the social sciences by integrating perspectives from the humanities and management sciences.
• To promote rigorous scholarship that explains and responds to contemporary social issues such as inequality, governance, education, organizational challenges, cultural change and public discourse.
• To encourage interdisciplinary dialogue where social sciences connect with arts, language, culture, ethics, leadership and institutional development.
• To support ethical, transparent and methodologically sound research through a double-blind peer-review process and adherence to academic standards.
• To provide open-access, globally accessible scholarship that strengthens research culture, supports emerging researchers and contributes to social and policy development.
