One Percent Research Initiative 

The One Percent Research Initiative is a not-for-profit initiative that aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice by conducting rigorous studies that advance public health knowledge. Even a one percent improvement in research methodologies can profoundly impact the quality and validity of findings. In addition to our research pursuits, we are passionate about empowering young researchers. We provide comprehensive training programs that equip them with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in their research endeavours. We aim to inspire and educate the next generation of public health researchers by fostering a collaborative and supportive environment.
