Our journal OSLS joins the Diamond Discovery Hub (DDH)

23 Mar 2026

We are pleased to announce that, following a recent evaluation, our flagship journal, Oñati Socio-legal Series, has successfully met all six criteria of the Diamond Discovery Hub (DDH). As a result, the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT), acting as a trusted source for the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH), has directly included the journal in the platform.

The six criteria are:

  • Persistent identification
  • Academic nature of the journal
  • Open access with open licences
  • No fees for authors or readers
  • Openness to all authors
  • Community-based governance and ownership

In June, the IISL had joined the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH), of which the DDH is one of the services.
