The IDS Bulletin is the flagship publication of the Institute of Development Studies, UK, which is a leading global organisation for research, teaching and communications on international development. With its over 40 year history the Bulletin has a unique reputation for intellectually rigorous articles on emerging and evolving development issues presented in an accessible manner, and has become one of the leading journals in its field through engaged scholarship between academic and policy communities in the North and the South. It brings together the latest cutting-edge thinking and research from programmes and events involving the IDS community and presents them to an audience of development practitioners, policymakers and researchers.

The IDS also produces a separate series of Working and Practice Papers, and Research Reports, in-house.
