About the Journal
The Journal of Development Practice (JDP), e-ISSN: 2394-0476, is an open access peer-reviewed international journal. It is an endeavor of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences and managed by the Department of Economics at Assam Don Bosco University to create and provide a platform for emerging scholars, practitioners, academicians and policy makers to articulate their views, opinions and experiences in an academic and open ambience.
The journal encourages an approach that emphasizes the combination of theory with facts of everyday lived-experiences in the reconstruction of knowledge and reconversion of the same into practices for improvement of human life. An interdisciplinary framework drawn from multidisciplinary fields of Economics, Social work, Education, English, Political Science, Mass Communication, Psychology, Human Rights, Sociology, Philosophy and other Social Sciences and Humanities in addressing human problems is highly recommended. While established theories are respected, the JDP is open to repositioning epistemic claims, alternative views that arise out of field evidences and indigenous wisdom.
