About the Journal

Papers in Education and Development (PED) is an international peer-reviewed journal published biannually by the University of Dar es Salaam School of Education. Since its inception in 1975, the journal has provided a critical platform for scholarly dialogue on issues related to education and development, with a particular focus on education systems, policies, and practices in sub-Saharan Africa and beyond. PED encourages original and innovative research that explores the intersections of education and development across all educational levels, from early childhood education to tertiary and vocational education, including adult and non-formal education. The journal strives to promote intellectual contributions that address the diverse and complex educational challenges faced by developing countries, offering insight into practical solutions and policy implications.
