Home Renaissance Foundation
Home Renaissance Foundation (HRF) or Renewing the Culture of the Home
HRF is a think tank: it promotes a greater recognition of the work that goes into creating healthy and congenial home environments. Individuals grow and develop at home, so it is in society’s best interests to look after it.
What it thinks
Domestic work is not merely a collection of jobs such as laundry, cleaning, and cooking. It is a values system in which science, art, psychology, culture, skills and an aptitude for management all play a part.Every individual needs a high level of care in order to flourish, whether they are children, elderly, adolescents or men and women with demanding and stressful professions.
What it does
Home Renaissance Foundation carries out this work and acts as a catalyst for change. We encourage and back research projects and International Conferences on a vast number of topics relating to work in the home. And we inspire excellence in training through different initiatives.
The Home Renaissance Foundation team works on:
Academic Research
Interdisciplinary academic research -theoretical and practical- to produce the relevant knowledge required for this change. Research gives us the tools to raise awareness of the value of the work of the home. We strive to become an authority on knowledge relating to the home, the work of the home and the care of the family.
Inspiring Excellence
Inspiring excellence in training and expertise in tasks within the home, our Foundation aims to ensure that our inherited traditions, natural talents and the correct and efficient use of new technologies all contribute toward the creation of well-run homes.
Creating a dialogue for change
We want to act as a catalyst for change by encouraging public policies that recognise the new family dynamics and promote education and communication strategies that increase awareness that family tasks are a matter of shared responsibility.
