The ULK Scientific Journal publishes original research that considers developmental issues across the different sectors based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, National Strategies for Development, and current evolving topical development issues with a main focus on Sub-Saharan Africa context.
In most developing countries in Africa, individuals are left with no solutions to most of the societal challenges with limited or/and strategies to overcome these challenges as they unfold quite often with detrimental impacts on daily lives.
The ULK Scientific Journal will both create and inform the debate in this exciting area of research to provide solutions to societies’ challenges by publishing original research based on theory, practice, empirical analysis, and rigorous methodology using modern prediction modelling techniques.
Priority is given to papers which are: relevant to important current research in development policy, theory and analysis; make a novel and significant contribution to the field; and that which provide critical tests, based on empirical work, of alternative theories, perspectives or schools of thought, original case studies .
We invite articles that are interdisciplinary or focused on particular disciplines e.g. microfinance, entrepreneurship, green economy and climate change resilience, digital financial services, sustainability of micro enterprises, banking and finance, trade and investment, financial markets, business incubation, internet of things (IoT), strategy and international business, economics, politics, geography, sociology or anthropology, business administration and management, TVET and development, financial literacy, financial inclusion, business resilience and shocks, and other important areas in social sciences.
