The effect of daytime circadian thermal variability on the well-being of building occupants. A case study of office type building occupants in Kampala.
REFNo: SIR41ES
The research objective is to compare short and long-term impacts, of variable indoor thermal conditions (which mimic the outdoor variability) versus static thermal conditions, on the wellbeing of building occupants.

Rapid Qualitative Research to support integrated environment, livelihoods and health programming in Uganda (“Supporting Integrated Programming”)
REFNo: HS1137ES
The research objectives are to:
1) Determine the environmental, livelihood and health challenges facing communities living in/near Rushebeya wetland;
2) Identify how, and through what structures and processes, people in these communities make decisions about and respond to identified challenges; and identify whether these responses have changed over time;
3) Examine whether there are differences in responses by age, sex or socio-economic background.
4) Identify messages and intervention activities to address the challenges felt by different groups in these communities.

Epidemiology of Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) in Uganda
REFNo: A103ES
General Objective:
To determine national PPR risk profiles [low, medium and high], seroprevalence and incidence of different PPRV lineages, factors that influence PPRV transmission and hence develop a dynamic PPRV transmission model and the best control intervention(s) to limit PPRV transmission in selected livestock production systems in Uganda
The specific objectives of this study are to:
i. stratify Uganda districts into different PPR risk profiles [low, medium and high] by undertaking presence only ecological niche (MaxEnt) modeling of the past PPR outbreaks, small ruminant movements and vaccination coverage data sets
ii. estimate seroprevalence of PPRV and epidemiological factors that influence PPRV transmission within and between different PPR risk profiles and small ruminant production systems
iii. estimate PPR incidence and PPRV lineages involved in different PPR outbreaks across different small ruminant production systems [or agro-ecological zones] in Uganda
iv. develop a PPRV transmission dynamic and eradication model for PPR in selected small ruminant production systems [agro-ecological zones] in Uganda using compartmentalized SEIR mathematical modeling approach
