The Philippine Journal of Development Communication (PJDC) (ISSN: 2012-2586) is an open access peer-reviewed journal published bi-annually by the College of Development Communication, University of the Philippines Los Baños (CDC-UPLB).
The College of Development Communication is the world-recognized pioneer in the study and practice of development communication. As CDC’s official journal, PJDC’s vision is to be the main space in which students and scholars of development communication share their stories to further scientific inquiry and examination of social issues in the context of communication. It also aims to be the leading national and regional platform for knowledge building and exchange in the broad areas of development communication and its domains: community communication, educational communication, and science communication.
PJDC hopes to contribute to the conversation on communication for development and social change in the Philippines and in Southeast Asia. Because PJDC believes that information shared is powerful, it is committed to an open access policy so that devcom knowledge is available to more practitioners, students, and scholars.
