Challenges and opportunities of our journal
Abstract
With this number we complete the volume 21 of the Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud de la Universidad del Cauca. Sustaining it has meant a continuous effort since its foundation in 1998 by Alfonso Tenorio. The publication has had ups and downs, as is common in university publications, which not only depend on the effort of a group of health professionals motivated by their desire to publish research results mainly from regions and departments like Cauca. They have also depended on the changing policy of Colciencias and its Publindex indexing system, in a volatile global context and in crisis (1). Many consider it an erratic policy that: “without recognizing the knowledge of the discipline, copy models of natural science with strong influence of corporate models such as Scimago and Scopus” (2).
