Research and Awareness
At the "João Ferreira dos Santos" Knowledge Center, we honor the legacy of our founder by fostering a culture of research and development (R&D).
RESEARCH PROJECTS
We are dedicated to addressing major social, environmental, and economic challenges in our focus areas through research. In collaboration with specialized academic institutions, experienced organizations, and knowledgeable individuals, we share and develop knowledge and resources for the greater good.
TOOLS
In response to major environmental challenges, through our experience and research processes, we identify and develop innovative methodologies and practical tools. These resources are made available to change agents, contributing to regeneration processes and creating a transformative impact.
PUBLICATIONS
All analysis and research processes, including the systematization of concepts and the development of tools, are translated into scientifically rigorous documents, thoroughly verified, and made available to the community. This commitment to academic rigor actively contributes to global knowledge, essential for the transformation and regeneration of society and the environment.
AMPLIFICATION & ADVOCACY
The true impact of knowledge will only be achieved through its dissemination, thereby becoming a catalyst for transformation and regeneration processes. We are deeply committed to supporting change agents, as well as raising awareness and advocacy, contributing to vital causes and providing resources where they are most needed.
RESEARCH AND AWARENESS PROJECTS
Research that matters
POVERTY BASELINE STUDY
The RESET Foundation is developing a practical and simplified tool to assess the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) among smallholder family farmers in rural areas of Mozambique. This tool will be accessible to any entity interested in evaluating and monitoring this issue within the scope of their activities. The protocol is being designed based on internationally recognized models, simplifying and adapting them to the national and local context.
PRODUCERS BASIC NEEDS CALCULATION
The RESET Foundation is committed to developing a tool and systematizing references regarding the basic needs of rural households, including food, nutrition, water, income, and biomass (for cooking and construction). This aggregated information will be essential for any economic agent working with or intending to work with communities. Only with a holistic view of priorities and needs can appropriate correlations be established and specific interventions designed and scaled effectively.
RESEARCH PROJECTS
We are committed to applying research to the key social, environmental and economic challenges of the focus areas, in collaboration with specialist academia and other organizations and individuals with recognized expertise, where knowledge and resources are shared and developed for the greater good.
