Five research programmes, one account for global peer-reviewed science
The Research4Life database access bundles the whole Research4Life partnership into a single subscription — a public-private initiative that opens up peer-reviewed academic and professional literature from the leading scholarly publishers. Instead of five separate logins, you search health, agriculture, innovation, legal and environmental research from one place.

Inside this resource
The five Research4Life programmes
Hinari covers health and biomedical research; AGORA covers agriculture and food science; ARDI covers innovation and technology; GOALI covers law and justice; and OARE covers the environment. Each is a full database in its own right, and this account carries all five.
Publishers behind the Research4Life database access
Content comes from recognised houses including Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, Oxford University Press and The Lancet. That means journals, review articles, clinical guidance and full books across medicine and the sciences, not abstracts alone.
One search, full text in hand
A single integrated search engine explores every programme at once, and results open as complete articles and books in PDF and HTML. Systematic reviews and clinical guidelines sit alongside primary research for a multidisciplinary literature base.
Who this serves
- Clinicians and health researchers — Hinari alone rivals a hospital library; the other four programmes widen the lens to public health, policy and environment.
- Postgraduate and thesis students — peer-reviewed full text across disciplines without waiting on an institutional guest login.
- Multidisciplinary teams — medicine, agriculture, technology, law and environmental science under one account and one search.

Full-text from Elsevier and Springer without a university affiliation. Downloaded a stack of Lancet articles for my review the first evening.
Sofia L. –
Content is genuinely good. I just wish the interface between the five programmes felt a bit more unified — it works, but it’s a little clunky.
Dr. Nadia F. –
Hinari access alone would have been worth it, and getting AGORA and OARE on the same login was a bonus for a one-health project. Search across all five is smooth.
thesis_helena –
Really broad coverage. The integrated search is handy though it can throw a lot of results at you, so bring good filters.
Dr. P. Ramesh –
GOALI and ARDI are niche for me but Hinari is excellent. HTML and PDF both worked fine on my tablet.
agri_researcher –
AGORA is exactly what my food-science group needed and the price against five separate subscriptions is not close.
