The Journal of Development Policy and Practice (JDPP) serves as a platform to bring together voices from civil society, and academic and policymaking circles for a deeper understanding of the policy formulation and implementation landscape in India and other nations. It is a comprehensive research tool for practitioners and students of public policy, economics, social sciences and public administration.

The journal seeks to strike a balance between theoretical, empirical/research-based and practice-oriented papers. All accepted papers go through rigorous double-blind peer reviews.

Journal of Development Policy and Practice (JDPP) is the flagship journal of the Centre for Development Policy and Practice (CDPP) and has been regularly published since 2015. The journal is published bi-annually through SAGE Publications.
