The STRATI Journal of International Development welcomes original papers from academicians, researchers and practitioners alike, and particularly encourages submissions that draw on policy-oriented theoretical and empirical multi-disciplinary studies focusing on foreign aid, governance, healthcare, education, poverty reduction, gender equality, disaster preparedness, infrastructure, economics, human rights, environment, globalization, climate change, corporate social responsibility, social movements and civil society, millennium development goals, state building and institutions, participation and decision-making, appropriate technology, sustainable development and sustainability, and issues associated with these.
The papers should generally be 6000-8000 words with abstract of not more than 200 words, though more substantial papers will be considered. The contributions to STRATI Journal of International Development reflect the multidisciplinary emphasis, which is fundamental to the journal. The papers will be double-blind refereed using an appropriate cross-section of reviewers drawn from the target interests. The journal aims for a turn-around time of three months from submission to publication to ensure rapid dissemination and dynamic discussion of ideas and results. The Editor, therefore, welcomes early contact prior to submission of manuscripts with, for example, an abstract. Book reviews are also included.
STRATI Journal of International Development will be of interest to academicians, researchers and practitioners working in multidisciplinary fields across the social, natural and engineering sciences; policy and decision makers in national and local government and relevant agencies, and non-governmental organisations. The Editorial Board provides a unique mix of expertise from both the academic community and a full range of interested parties.
