Launch of the Journal Religion and Development

The articles published in the Journal Religion and Development will reach into the tripartite space of religious communities, academia and policy makers Philipp Öhlmann Religious Communities and Sustainable Development #religion & #development

Dr. Philipp Öhlmann, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, is introducing the journal. Three importances to establish journal R & D : The move towards sustainable development, reconfiguration of religion and development & the emerging academic contribution in the field of R & D.

"Maintaining partnership with different stakeholders, here, religious communities, is really essential. Only with open, honest and profound research, which is presented in this journal, we could move towards a more just society and protect our planet." Ms Claudia Jordan, PaRD.

"This journal is an evidence that academia can make differences by tackling interdisciplinary topics and including policy makers as well as practitioners. This shows a high quality publication in the field of #Religion and #Development." PD Dr. Izaak de Hulster, Brill Germany

"The practical commitment to sustainable development has found an international and visible space in the Journal Religion and Development" Prof Wilhelm Graeb

"Faith actors have been enriching and shaping development goals. And this journal could break barriers and biases in the field of #Religion and #Development." Prof. Emma Tomalin, University of Leeds

"The main challenge in the field of Religion and Development hasn't been ideally conceptualised. In the journal R & D, the contribution is quite promising to go deep into theoretical discussion to address the empirical evidences." Prof. Masooda Bano, Oxford University.

"Thank you for this journal. We, in the Global South, finally have found our home, that allows us to have meaningful conversations." Prof. Damaris Parsitau, Egerton University; President of the African Association for the Study of Religion in Africa and Its Diaspora
