Himalayan Journal of Sciences is dedicated to the promotion of scientific research, informed discourse, and enlightened stewardship of natural and cultural systems in the Himalayan region.

The problems and opportunities confronting the Himalayan region are so broad and interrelated as to resist treatment within traditional academic disciplines; accordingly, the Himalayan Journal of Sciences publishes articles of scientific merit based on investigations in all fields of enquiry pertinent to the natural and cultural systems of the Himalayan region.
