How Can We Help?

IRPP is the Research Institute for Priority Populations. We are an organization driven by a commitment to producing cutting-edge scientific knowledge and developing practical actions that promote equity and human dignity.

We operate in an integrated way, bringing together research, health, education, culture, and innovation. Our projects are designed to reduce historical inequalities, expanding access to knowledge and strengthening assistance and social impact policies.

Our focus is on historically marginalized groups. Currently, we are developing robust actions with indigenous peoples and incarcerated individuals, always seeking to give a voice and visibility to the territories and communities that need the most attention.

Although research is our foundation, our work goes much further. We transform science into care, promoting training, cultural activities, and strategic coordination with partners so that the knowledge generated becomes real change in the territories.

We love sharing our journey! You can follow us here on our official website or through our Instagram. There, we share our publications, field visits, and all ongoing initiatives.

Our administrative and coordination base is in Salvador, at Zarns College. However, IRPP pulses wherever research and need are present, acting in different territories according to the demands of each initiative. Address: Avenida Luís Viana Filho, 3230, Imbuí, Salvador - BA, CEP 41720-200, Brazil.

Ethics and transparency are non-negotiable for us. We adopt rigorous scientific criteria and use the REDCap platform for data management, ensuring that all information is handled with maximum security, standardization, and respect for participants.

IRPP is funded through project calls, institutional partnerships, and technical-scientific collaborations with organizations that have values aligned with our mission of promoting equity.

We currently lead studies of national relevance in indigenous communities, in the prison system, and in epidemiological analyses based on public data, always focusing on populations that require more assertive public policies.
