Submit Your Work

Thank you for taking the next step toward publication with the Youth Innovation Journal (YIJ). This page is for official manuscript submission. Before uploading, please ensure your work follows the formatting and submission guidelines provided on our main “Submit Your Work” page.

We accept submissions from high school students worldwide across all stages of innovation—from concept proposals to validated prototypes. Every submission is reviewed for originality, rigour, clarity, and responsible innovation.

If your work includes potentially patentable ideas, please review our Patent Disclosure Checklist before submitting or request an embargo period.

All accepted submissions will receive editorial feedback, a digital certificate, and publication under open-access format.

Once submitted, you’ll receive an email confirmation and your manuscript will enter our review process (4–6 weeks for first decision).
