Welcome to The Journal for Transdisciplinary Research
The purpose of this website is to serve as a supplement for the TD Journal. TD is an international transdisciplinary journal for research in all fields of scientific endeavour. It is published and edited in the Vaal Triangle Faculty of Northwest University in South Africa.
