Maitreyee, the e-bulletin of the Human Development and Capability Association, analyzes a specific theme that relates to the human development and capability approach. It contains:

Short articles which are written by experts in the field and which provide a brief overview of the literature for the non-specialist reader.
Short reviews of practical work being done.

Maitreyee is a starting point for academics and practitioners who work in human development areas and who are seeking a brief introduction to research and work undertaken on a number of human development topics.

It is edited by HDCA members, and is now issued twice a year.
