Global Governance’s Influence on Public-sector Digital Transformation: A case study of the digital “Identity for Development” (ID4D) Initiatives and national digital identity ecosystems in Kenya & Uganda
REFNo: SS1963ES
More research investigating the global “digital transformation for development” (DX4D) policy in a contextual manner is needed. The research seeks an understanding of the progress, challenges, and opportunities surrounding public-sector digital transformation.

The project seeks to gain insights and perspectives on the influential linkages between global governance, public administration, and public-sector digital transformation processes.
Objectives
The overall aim of the research is to understand how global governance and government actors can foster equitable and inclusive approaches to public sector digital transformation. The research objectives are detailed in the following:
Draw insights through an analysis of the dynamics that structure such engagements and investigate how powerful countries and global governance actors influence PSDT.
Understand how the PSDT and DPI linked to digital identity influence public administration reform processes, particularly the digital and dynamic capabilities of public organisations.
Understand how the PSDT and DPI linked to digital identity influence public value and well-being.

Multi-level intervention for intersectional stigma reduction to improve HIV outcomes
REFNo: HS2977ES
Adapt the multilevel PRISM ISD-reduction intervention to address ISD for TGW in Uganda.
We will use the ADAPT-ITT model to adapt the multilevel PRISM intervention; specifically, the health facility TFA and individual-level ISD-reduction interventions (multilevel Ssinga nze intervention). Formative research (6 focus group discussions) with healthcare facility (HCF) staff and TGW at four health facilities ranked lowest on the PEPFAR Uganda stigma scorecard will explore ISD drivers and manifestations. We will use ADAPT-ITT to modify the multilevel Ssinga nze intervention comprising the HP+/HIVE3 interventions in consultation with community partners, peers, and providers. We will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the adapted Ssinga nze intervention using pre-post surveys, observation of trainings, and pre-post changes in mean scores on stigma scales.
Aim 2: Conduct a pilot hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial to test the preliminary effectiveness of the adapted multilevel Ssinga nze ISD-reduction intervention on (a) PrEP adherence or (b) viral suppression among TGW using a status-neutral approach.
Two of the health facilities in Aim 1 will be randomly assigned to Ssinga nze (the adapted HP+/HIVE3 intervention) with a 6-month wait-list control. TGW (N=120) will be randomly assigned to receive either Ssinga nze or wait-list control. All will enroll at study clinics, receive HIV testing, and be offered ART or PrEP depending on HIV status. TGW assigned to Ssinga nze will be followed at HIV clinics randomized to HP+; those assigned to wait-list control will attend control health facilities.
Aim 3: Evaluate implementation of Ssinga nze using qualitative methods.
Guided by the Intersectionality-Enhanced Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research [1], we will conduct in-depth interviews with purposively selected cadres of clinic staff trained in HP+ delivery (n=15) and TGW receiving HIVE3 (n=15), and 12 field observations (4 per clinic) to clarify how ISD-reduction intervention delivery may influence HIV prevention and treatment and to understand the actions and synergies of intervention components, assess health facility stigma reduction at HIV clinics for TGW, and interpret implementation data from Aim 2.
