Though it is still a new semi-annual periodical where the first issue was just appeared in September last year, the Economic Cooperation and Development Review, a recent initiative by SESRIC, has been very well received and highly appreciated at all levels and by all measures. The first two issues of the Review have been circulated widely within the OIC community and elsewhere, particularly at the highest levels of the governments of the OIC member countries, including heads of states, ministers, senior officials, and academicians. This encouraging feedback will no doubt foster our enthusiasm to further developing this periodical as an effective instrument for enhancing the Centre’s efforts to provide the necessary and up-to-date information and knowledge that would make the member countries better informed of each other’s capacities and needs as well as challenges and potentials.
