The Research & Ethics department at SCOPE serves as a think tank dedicated to addressing critical issues in poverty, malnutrition, and healthcare through research-driven solutions. Recognizing the importance of scientifically sound and ethically responsible research, especially in developing countries like Pakistan, we focus on policy-oriented studies that drive meaningful change.

Mission

Our mission is to provide research-based policy recommendations to reduce poverty, combat malnutrition, and enhance healthcare in Pakistan. We achieve this by fostering partnerships, sharing research insights, strengthening capacities, and leveraging data analytics for informed decision-making.

Vision

To be Pakistan’s leading academic research and ethics center, driving impactful and multidisciplinary research.

Key Objectives

  • Transform Research into Impact: Our goal is to ensure that research findings lead to real-world solutions by influencing policies and driving change in healthcare, poverty reduction, and malnutrition.
  • Advance Research Methodologies: We strive to develop new theoretical insights, improve research techniques, and share our findings widely to contribute to academic and policy discussions.
  • Encourage Multidisciplinary Collaboration: By integrating expertise from various fields, we enhance the depth and scope of research, leading to more comprehensive and effective solutions.
  • Provide Data-Driven Insights: We collect, analyze, and interpret data to offer well-researched recommendations that inform decision-making and policy development.
