Call for papers for MRD’s MountainDevelopment and MountainAgenda sections

0 mins Read

70% Complete

Mountain Research and Development (MRD) invites submissions for its peer-reviewed MountainDevelopment and MountainAgenda sections. The first spotlights transformation knowledge: How can we solve problems and tap opportunities for greater sustainability? Articles should offer validated insights from development interventions, local practices, and policy efforts. The second focuses on target knowledge: What sustainable development do we want? Articles should systematically review—and conclude with agendas for—research, development, or policy in a given area of sustainable mountain development. These kinds of knowledge are fundamentally important for sustainable development, and yet they receive comparably little attention in scientific research. Let’s change that! Submissions are welcome anytime.
