Use, Acceptability and Feasibility of a Pilot mHealth Intervention in Control of Diarrhoea in Kayunga District Uganda
REFNo: HS16ES

Obtain community feedback on the preliminary version of the mHealth intervention to refine the intervention, the app—user interactions, and procedures for promoting the intervention in the community.\r\n2. Make the intervention to one community of approximately 3,000 residents for 3 months and evaluate: use, acceptability, and feasibility of the intervention. \r\n3. Based on the findings, revise the mHealth intervention for testing in a larger trial to assess its effectiveness in reducing the time to treatment, cases of severe diarrhoea, and mortality. \r\n

Transitional Justice Systems in Uganda
REFNo: SS28ES
To map out international and local transitional justice (TJ) initiatives from the perspective of locally based Ugandans. More concretely the researcher aims to contribute to the field substantively and methodologically. Substantively this study’s objectives are to: (1) explain how sub-regional TJ systems are understood in contextual terms, (2) explain how mainstream TJ is perceived by local actors within their respective system, (3) explain why local actors believe the mainstream is compatible with contextual approaches, if at all, and (4) explain why contextual actors interpret their respective sub-regional TJ system as they do. To help accomplish the substantive aims listed above this study includes the following methodological objectives: (1) to map sub-regional systems; (2) to gather oral and visual descriptions from participants to generate “system stories” that explain system behaviours; (3) to ask participants why they describe sub-regional systems as they do; and, (4) to develop conceptual models using visual mapping software and written text. Using this methodology, this study could also make substantive contributions to: explain how contextual systems are described in “post-liberal” terms, document preferred forms of interconnectivity between various approaches, as well as, similarities and differences among participants’ views.
