ORCHIDEA ACADEMIC PRESS
Orchidea Academic Press is a proposed independent scholarly publishing initiative in Singapore, created to support rigorous, transparent and globally accessible academic communication across disciplines.
A multi-disciplinary publishing platform
Seven pillars support Orchidea's long-term development as a scholarship-first publisher — from peer-reviewed journals to research integrity governance.
ORCHIDEA Journals
Peer-reviewed journal publishing across major fields — research across disciplines.
ORCHIDEA Books
Monographs, edited volumes, handbooks and textbooks — scholarship in depth.
ORCHIDEA Open
A publisher-wide programme for responsible open scholarship — knowledge without barriers.
ORCHIDEA Integrity
Publication ethics and research integrity framework — trust in scholarly communication.
ORCHIDEA Proceedings
Transparent, editor-led conference and scholarly proceedings publishing.
ORCHIDEA Research
Reports, policy briefs, cases and protocols — research beyond the article.
ORCHIDEA Academy
Editor, reviewer and researcher development — better publishing through better practice.

Each journal is operationally and editorially distinct, with its own editor-in-chief, editorial board, scope and peer-review process. Wave 1 titles are in active development; the remaining portfolio is planned for future phases.
