About Us / OUR PHILOSOPHY
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The Research Australia Development & Innovation Institute (radii.org) is an independent philanthropic Non-Profit Education, Community and Health Foundation established to:
• improve learning outcomes for students and enhance the well-being and health of communities
• provide evidence-based services to education, social, community, and health organisations
• undertake evidence-based research on education, social, community and health issues
• support organisations to undertake evidence-based research
• provide research support to education, social, community, and health organisations
• provide financial and other support to students with access to limited social capital who demonstrate their capacity to benefit from such additional developmental opportunities.
The current radii.org program of research places highest priority on researching critical issues in the improvement of student learning outcomes and school performance.
radii.org is not dependent on for-profit interests and is not dependent on any government or related entity.
Funding for radii.org research is generated from the products of its research output, funding from its founders and from research projects undertaken for schools, school systems, private sector and government organisations, health and community organisations and groups.
radii.org operates on the principle that the core findings of its research will be made available to the broader community, schools, social, community and health organisations.
As a Non-Profit Foundation, radii.org seeks to build on the life-experiences of its founders, by providing funds not allocated for research to the ACORN Scholarship Program for students who have limited access to educational opportunities to achieve their potential during schooling and in post-school education.
