Divyadaan: Journal of Philosophy and Education is published three times a year by Divyadaan: Salesian Institute of Philosophy, Nashik, India. It focuses mainly on philosophy, with interest also in the streams of education and communication, which are the two specializations offered by the Institute. The Institute is run by the Society of St Francis de Sales, also known as the Salesians of Don Bosco, an international Catholic religious congregation whose primary mission is the education of young people, especially those who are disadvantaged. The congregation also interests itself in the welfare of middle- and working-class people, hence its interest in popular communication.
Earlier names
Originally entitled Divyadaan: A Philosophical Annual, in 1995 it was renamed Divyadaan: Journal of Philosophy, and in 1996 Divyadaan: Journal of Philosophy and Education. Articles are indexed in The Philosopher's Index.
