Journals section

On this page, we will therefore focus on listing contents from journals based in developing countries plus a few key journals based in the north. We will include weblinks and other info on how to access the main development journals easily. We also intend gradually to make links between themes and sectors covered in the website and specific journal articles - especially those from the south. We would appreciate feedback on how this journals section can be made as useful as possible - Contact Development Initiatives.
