This e-journal adopts a multi-disciplinary approach to development studies, by proposing different and alternative views, perspectives, ideas and analyses on local, national and international development, by  highlighting the lessons learned from different experiences, with a focus on social change.

Our goal is to learn from one another, that is a process of mutual learning by strengthening links among members of a community of academic scholars from different countries spread mainly in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

In other terms, we hope to set an example of academic community among African, Asian and Latin American scholars who are interested in being involved in an international dialogue, exchanging ideas and facilitating mutual dissemination of research and its results, creating a forum for them and providing a dedicated publication.

This is a refereed e-journal that is distributed electronically: the primary means of distributing this e-journal is over the internet with the aim of guaranteeing free access to the articles. The e-journal is organized into volumes and issues. 

Our idea is to publish the bound volume annually or semi-annually. Every issue takes into account the importanceof having diFerent perspectives and disciplines

and promotes young researchers linked to the doctoral school on the SDGs of the international network involving and linking some 40 PhD programmes in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia.

This e-journal is published by CeSPI ETS.
