Young Persons with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: an African perspective
The International Journal of Developmental Disabilities is planning a Special Supplementary Issue on “Young Persons with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: an African perspective” to be published in 2027.
Papers from leading groups based in African countries and invite to submit contributions (Research articles or Reviews) are therefore sought that describe good practice involving young persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities and that provide insight into the various adaptations and applications of research that can be made for these clients and the wider systems in which they live including staff and family carers.
Researchers interested in the possibility of publishing an article in the Supplementary Issue should submit an abstract by 31 July 2026 to Soha Elzalabany by email to [email protected] or Elsayed Elshabrawi Ahmed Hassanein [email protected]
