Prawara: Jurnal Pendidikan Bahasa dan Sastra Indonesia is a double-blind peer-reviewed scholarly journal published by the Department of Indonesian Language and Literature, Faculty of Humanities (Fakultas Ilmu Budaya), Universitas Jenderal Soedirman. The journal publishes research-based and review articles on Indonesian language teaching, linguistics, applied linguistics, literature teaching, and Indonesian language for foreigners. Further information about the journal's identity and publisher is available on the official Journal website.

This disclosure follows the transparency principle set out in the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing, jointly developed by COPE, DOAJ, OASPA, and WAME (see [COPE]). Principle 7, Ownership and Management, states that information about a journal's ownership and management must be clearly indicated on its website, and that publishers should not use organisational or journal names that mislead potential authors and editors about the nature of the journal's owner.

Ownership and Publishing Responsibility

Universitas Jenderal Soedirman owns and publishes Prawara. The journal operates under the institutional identity of the Department of Indonesian Language and Literature, Faculty of Humanities, which provides its organisational publishing framework. The publisher's identity is publicly disclosed on the journal's website so that authors, readers, reviewers, and other stakeholders can identify the organisation responsible for the publication.

In accordance with COPE's transparency principles, the journal identifies its publisher and provides publicly accessible information about its editorial team and contact details. These disclosures make the journal's organisational responsibilities transparent to the scholarly community. See the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing, particularly Principles 2, 3, and 7, concerning the governing body, editorial team and contact information, and ownership and management.

Editorial Governance and Management Structure

Prawara maintains a publicly listed editorial team consisting of an Editor-in-Chief, a Managing Editor, an Editorial Board, and a panel of Reviewers. The names and institutional affiliations of the editors, board members, and reviewers are available on the journal's [Editorial Team page](https://jos.unsoed.ac.id/index.php/jpbsi/about/editorialTeam).

Editor-in-Chief: Nur Indah Sholikhati, Jenderal Soedirman University, Indonesia

Managing Editor: Uki Hares Yulianti, Jenderal Soedirman University, Indonesia

This disclosure enables readers, authors, and reviewers to identify the scholars responsible for the journal's editorial administration and academic oversight.

Editorial Independence

The publisher supports the journal's scholarly mission, while editorial decisions are based on the academic merit of submitted manuscripts, including their originality, methodological soundness, significance, clarity, and relevance to the journal's scope. The Editor-in-Chief has full authority over the journal's editorial content and publication schedule, and editorial decisions are not determined by government policies or other external agencies.

This approach is consistent with COPE's guidance on responsible editorial practice. The journal's editorial decisions remain grounded in scholarly assessment and established editorial policies, without inappropriate influence from the publisher, commercial interests, or other external parties.

Transparency and Accountability

Prawara provides public information about its ownership, publishing organisation, editorial team, publication ethics, and contact details through its official website. The journal's principal contact and editorial office information are available on the [Contact page](https://jos.unsoed.ac.id/index.php/jpbsi/about/contact). These disclosures facilitate communication with the journal and help stakeholders identify the appropriate organisational and editorial contacts.

In line with COPE's transparency principles, the journal maintains accurate and current information about its ownership, management arrangements, editorial responsibilities, and publishing policies. Any material change to the publisher, ownership, or management structure will be reflected on the journal's website so that stakeholders can access reliable information about the journal's governance.
