Asia Pacific Viewpoint  pop

Aiming to continue the high standards of scholarship set by Pacific Viewpoint since 1960, Asia Pacific Viewpoint seeks to expand its scope and clarity by publishing papers which sit at the interface of three major areas: geography and allied disciplines, development, and the Asia Pacific Region. Visual work in the form of maps and other cartographic aids will be encouraged.

Asia-Pacific Population Journal

This refereed professional journal contains articles, papers and notes that cover a broad range of population issues of interest to readers in the Asian and Pacific region in a form that is relatively easy for educated readers to understand. As much as possible, priority is given to the publication of articles and papers written by authors from the region or familiar with it in order to give them a forum to present their findings on population and development which other journals might not accept because of authors' weakness in English or the publication's limited interest in Asia and the Pacific. This strategy also stimulates professional scholarship and improved technical reporting in ESCAP developing countries.

He Puna Körero: Journal of Maori and Pacific Development (JMPD)

The aim of this journal is to provide a forum for writers expressing views on their perspectives on Māori and Pacific development (Pacific being the whole region including the land masses that form its basin). In representing matters of concern in the development of Māori and Indigenous development, the hope is that by the engagement of an extensive range of interests, both national and the international arena of indigenous people's developments, there will be a wide pool of informed scholarship to draw ideas from.

International Review for Environmental Strategies (IRES)

The International Review for Environmental Strategies (IRES) is a peer-reviewed biannual journal aimed at disseminating strategically oriented environmental research to the world. Its scope is global, although it gives priority to issues of special concern to the Asia-Pacific region. Guided by the principles of timeliness and accessibility, the journal publishes original, high-quality papers that take multidisciplinary, integrated approaches to sustainable development. In doing so, it seeks to promote and facilitate dialogue between stakeholders. The papers are evaluated, considering policy relevance, uniqueness, factual basis and methodology. The journal is published in English in order to reach a broad audience; however, papers are reviewed in terms of quality and utility, rather than for language proficiency.
