About the Journal

The Wah Academia Journal of Global Religions (WAJGR) is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal committed to advancing critical scholarship and interdisciplinary dialogue in the study of world religions. Published quarterly by Wah Academia, the journal provides a platform for original research, comparative analyses, and theoretical insights that explore the diversity, complexity, and evolving role of religions across cultures and civilizations.

WAJGR welcomes contributions from scholars, researchers, and practitioners engaged in the academic study of religion, theology, philosophy, ethics, anthropology, sociology, and interfaith relations. We encourage submissions that bridge traditional religious scholarship with contemporary issues, such as globalization, social justice, environmental ethics, gender, migration, digital spirituality, and inter-religious engagement.
