Journal of Environmental Communication and Ethnic Studies (JECES) is a premier, international, double-blind peer-reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to advancing pioneering knowledge at the critical intersection of environmental communication, ethnicity, culture, religion, and sustainability science. Serving as a rigorous global forum, JECES publishes high-quality empirical, theoretical, methodological, and review articles that explain how communication processes, cultural identities, religious values, and social institutions influence environmental awareness, ecological responsibility, community resilience, and sustainable development. As global environmental crises accelerate, the journal fills a crucial epistemological gap by synthesizing discourses across communication studies, environmental humanities, sociology, and theology to foster a transformative international dialogue on contemporary sustainability transitions

The journal aims to contribute to the development of innovative theories, methodologies, and practices that unpack the complex relationships between environmental issues, communication systems, ethnic diversity, and socio-cultural transformations. Distinctively, JECES recognizes the vital importance of indigenous knowledge, local wisdom, ethnic identities, and faith-based perspectives in addressing climate action and environmental management. It serves as a unique scholarly platform for research on environmental and sustainability communication within multicultural, indigenous, Islamic, Malay, and Global South contexts. Within this framework, the journal strongly encourages studies exploring how Islamic thought, environmental ethics, religious communication, and faith-based initiatives contribute to ecological governance and social justice, while welcoming comparative and cross-cultural perspectives to enrich global scholarship.

Through its publication, JECES strives to enhance the understanding of communication as a key driver of behavior change, encourage critical inquiry into the relationships between identity and sustainability, and analyze the contributions of localized and religious values to ecological resilience. Furthermore, the journal promotes critical dialogues on environmental justice, social inclusion, and community-based initiatives, fostering interdisciplinary approaches that bridge communication studies with sustainability science. By prioritizing voices and perspectives from underrepresented regions, JECES actively supports the diversification of global scholarship and facilitates international academic exchanges. Ultimately, the journal aspires to be a leading international forum for innovative research that demonstrates how communication, ethnicity, culture, religion, and Islamic perspectives can synergistically contribute to building environmentally sustainable, socially just, and culturally resilient societies worldwide.
