A2D Project--Research Group for Alternatives to Development

A2D Project is a non-government, non-profit research group that is committed to finding innovative alternatives to address poverty, exclusion and inequality in the Philippines, especially in the Visayas and Mindanao regions. Our group is composed of academics, development practitioners, and a network of grassroots organizations who have accumulated extensive experience and expertise in action research and development work. A2D Project is currently based in Metro Cebu, a metropolitan center south of Manila that is undergoing rapid urban development and change. Our specific location makes us unique as we are situated outside of the National Capital, thus shifting our focus on the southern regions of the Philippines.
