Aims & Scope

A change in title reflects a slight reposition of the aims and scope of the Journal of Philanthropy and Marketing (JPM).

Philanthropy is no longer the preserve of the non-profit and voluntary sectors and isn’t exclusively practiced at ‘sector’ level.

Philanthropy in its broadest sense (giving, benevolence, welfare, altruism, prosocial behaviour and ‘doing good’) is playing a leading role in the management of a spectrum of organisations including multinational corporations and social enterprises (via some of their corporate social responsibility and marketing initiatives), governments, healthcare, and educational bodies (via their social marketing work).

Much philanthropic work is aided by the marketing capabilities of organisations: fostering and building relationships and networks to help create, communicate and deliver value to philanthropic beneficiaries.

Many of JPM’s initiatives are closely aligned with AACSB’S recommendations and guidelines for best practice in academic business publishing.

We actively encourage contributors to bridge the practitioner and academic divide and to focus on impact.

To further these aims JPM has recruited a Shadow Practitioner Editorial Board who vet Call for Papers and ensure that special issues resonate with the world outside of academia.

Our Twitter and LinkedIn pages ensure that practitioners within the philanthropic world gain access to our research outputs in a digestible format.

As well as disseminating key findings through other means, JPM has been increasing its number of open access articles using transformational agreements with institutions which facilitate this process.
