Categories

At Nordic Open Research, scholarly contributions are organized through categories rather than journals. We structure research around broad categories that emphasize the work itself rather than the journal-based prestige systems, ensuring that research is judged on its quality, rigor, and contribution rather than on journal impact factors. 

Categories help readers navigate research while bringing scholars together in community-driven spaces. By allowing articles to be placed in multiple fields, they encourage multidisciplinary dialogue across domains. Covering the major areas of knowledge, the structure offers both stability and accessibility while emphasizing collaboration over hierarchy. Linked directly to evaluations and open reviews, categories ensure that research and its discussion remain visible together, keeping the focus on scholarship itself rather than journal labels.
