our research intent

aidha invests in research that provides practical insight into pressing problems.  Each year, we indulge in projects whose results will shape our programmes and increase our impact.

We are intrigued by questions, for example, that shed light on:

Pedagogic method

  • how students learn
  • what encourages behavioral change
  • how change can be sustained

The intellectual & emotional preparedness of students

  • how to nurture confidence & hope
  • how to encourage motivation and commitment
  • resilience and its determinants

Patterns in poverty

  • the social impact of remittances on family enterprise
  • the social meaning of money
  • practical access to and consumer demand for micro-insurance products
