Accredited journals are a South African research phenomenon. The Department of Education wanted to raise the quality of research in South Africa. They decided to recommend specific peer-reviewed International and South African journals for publication. As a further incentive, the Department of Education subsidises every article published in these journals. These journals are subsequently known as accredited journals.
