ACTA MISSIOLOGICA

PEER-REVIEWED ACADEMIC JOURNAL OF THE ST. JOHN PAUL II. INSTITUTE OF MISSIOLOGY AND TROPICAL HEALTH AT ST. ELIZABETH UNIVERSITY OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL SCIENCE

Our mission is to create an international platform for experts engaged in the field of Christian mission and missiology, charity, social and humanitarian development work at the theoretical, research and application levels. The journal has been creating room within this international platform for further specificities covering the aforementioned fields that will produce new relevant findings and interconnections in order to promote the journal more to the widest possible professional community and stimulate a greater interest within it. One such field is international public law with its unique scientific and relevant, direct and close link to international missionary work, and several other relevant aspects from other fields on which the journal focuses. The journal publishes a wide spectrum of articles relevant for education with special focus on assisting professions in the aforementioned areas. This area includes all educational, health, social, legal (especially international humanitarian law, international human rights law, diplomatic law and international treaty law), international organization and spiritual topics connected to the missionary context. As of Autumn 2020, the journal will be focusing on specialised unique scientific and expert research at the international level, covering all the topics the journal has focused on thus far while also introducing new ones. One such aspect of scientific and expert research that the journal is going to focus on is the support for the family structure and its value in today’s society, as well as the promotion of human dignity and value in various essential aspects of life with a view to opening up effective dialogue on various relevant and interesting ideas about non-radicalised Islam, thus also benefiting the Christian environment.
