There are four ISI ranked academic journals closely linked to ISDRS covering interdisciplinary approaches to sustainable development, corporate social responsibility, and environmental policy. We are pleased to announce a new journal added to the group: Business Strategy and Development.
An excellent way to learn more about publishing academic papers, is to take part in the peer review process. If you would be happy to review an occasional paper for one of these five journals, please email assistant@isdrs.org, providing a list of one to four topics for which you could undertake reviews. We will forward your name, email address and topics to the publisher. You do not need to be an experienced author to undertake reviews. The most important rule of reviewing is to offer others the helpful critique that you would like to receive from them!
ISDRS does not have any control over when you might be asked to undertake a review, but you are not under any obligation to agree to review any specific paper, or to undertake a minimum number of reviews.
Sustainable Development
A wide interdisciplinary publication which seeks to further debate and discuss the important concept of sustainable development. The scope of the journal therefore allows for contributions which have a local, national or global focus from a philosophical to a practical perspective.

Environmental Policy and Governance
A leading academic journal in its field. It publishes high quality, peer reviewed research papers and more applied profiles that provide an original, detailed and critical analysis of contemporary developments in environmental policy, including comparative analyses from different regions.

The journal seeks to advance interdisciplinary environmental research and its use to support novel solutions in environmental policy and governance. The journal publishes innovative, high quality articles which examine, or are relevant to, the environmental policies that are introduced by governments or the diverse forms of environmental governance that emerge in markets and civil society. The journal includes papers that examine how different forms of policy and governance emerge and exert influence at scales ranging from local to global and in diverse developmental and environmental contexts. The journal invites analyses that are at the forefront of academic debates and that are of practical significance and policy relevance. Each volume includes guest-edited special issues on themes deemed to be of widespread interest and importance.
Environmental Policy and Governance is deliberately inter-disciplinary, seeking to publish articles that build the understanding of environmental issues not only by drawing upon and contributing to the environmental social sciences, but also by linking the social and natural sciences. The journal accommodates and encourages methodological innovation and diversity in order to foster interdisciplinary, problem-oriented environmental research.

It examines links between meeting social needs through leveraging corporate assets and expertise in order to enhance a company's competitive strategy and the development of new business opportunities. It examines the co-creation of shared value initiatives through partnerships with a range of stakeholders. Contributions are encouraged which examine the ways in which the private sector can contribute to development through its goods and services, management of value chains and through partnerships with other stakeholders to create positive development outcomes.
