I am glad to share with you the March 2016 edition of the PM World Journal, which featured my research paper Project Management for Peace.

In words of Managing Editor David Pells:

Two papers are also included on topics of critical importance in developing economies, and perhaps to the world at large: the “PM Profession as a catalyst for economic development”, by Isaac Chaza in Zimbabwe and “PM for Peace” by Monica Gonzalez in Argentina. Please review these good contributions to the growing project management body of knowledge.
