The Impact of Microcredit for Refugees and Host Communities
REFNo: SS4473ES
The aim of this project is to provide some of the first evidence on the benefits of extending credit to refugees, with a focus on documenting both financial and psychosocial gains. The team's close partnership with the UNHCR and the World Bank ensures that the results can be quickly disseminated to key actors in this space. UNHCR operates in over 136 countries and collaborates closely with implementing partners to develop and disseminate impactful programs. They are eager to build a body of evidence to inform the pursuit of certain policies over others, and facilitate discussions with local governments about implementing these policies.

Delivery and use of poultry vaccines in Uganda: A systems mapping and field-level study
REFNo: A655ES
Overall Aim
To map and analyse the poultry vaccine supply system in Uganda, examining both upstream supply chain structures and downstream use behaviours, in order to identify institutional, logistical, and behavioural barriers to effective, equitable, and sustainable vaccine-based disease prevention.
Specific Objectives
Part A: Systems mapping
1. To map the structural and logistical flow of poultry vaccines in Uganda, from importation through distribution to the point of administration.
2. To examine institutional roles, interdependencies, and governance arrangements that influence vaccine regulation, quality control, and coordination.
3. To assess inequities in vaccine availability, cold chain access, pricing, and service delivery across geographic regions, institutional levels, and actor groups.
4. To co-develop stakeholder-informed recommendations for improving supply chain efficiency, regulatory coordination, and equitable vaccine access.
Part B: Field-level practices
1. To identify the most used poultry vaccines and their sourcing patterns at the farm level.
2. To evaluate compliance with recommended vaccine handling and administration practices among farmers, veterinary workers, and agro vets.
3. To explore behavioural drivers—including knowledge, perceptions, motivations, and decision-making—that influence vaccine uptake and misuse.
4. To assess the role of agro-vet shop interactions, veterinary advice, packaging/labelling, and social norms in shaping field-level behaviours.
To quantify key knowledge gaps, operational challenges, and access barriers that limit effective poultry vaccine use at the farm level.
