6. Acknowledgments: The President of the Association, Profesor Maria-Carmen Guisan, is grateful to all the people that contributed to the achievementes of the Associations. The journals have got a great academic success, and support from readers and economics researchers, in spite of very limited financial support from Spanish and European institutions. The dedication to a hard editorial work has been intense and based on vocation and a lot of voluntary work from the members of the Editorial Board. 

We are grateful to the support received from the Advisory Board, with special gratitude to L.R. Klein, J.B. Pena-Trapero, and A.Pulido, for their great supports. We also are grateful to authors, readers, and also to several personas at universities, bibligraphical bases or at Administration) that have shown support to Economics research applied to international development, Their support has compensated many burocratics difficulties and scarcity of resources that our team has found in our work. 

We are happy if our publications have contribguted, and/or will contribute, to improve economic policies and increase development and quality of life in many countries and regiones of the World. We have seen,  in Entry 23.2 of this Blogwith data of 132 countries of the World, that the percentage of poverty diminish with economic policies that contribute to increase education, manufacturing, investment per capita and real production per capita. We think that economic research applied to development is very useful if politicians try to improve people´s quality of life.
