Uganda Population-based HIV Impact Assessment (UPHIA 2024-2025)
REFNo: HS5817ES
The primary objectives of UPHIA 2024-2025 are to:
1) Estimate the national and regional prevalence of HIV viral load suppression (VLS – defined as HIV RNA <1000 copies/milliliter(mL) in adults ages 15 years or older in the general population.
2) Estimate the prevalence of HIV at the national and regional level
3) Assess progress towards the UNAIDS 95- 95- 95 targets at the national and regional level
The secondary objectives of the survey are to:
1) Estimate the HIV incidence at the national level
2) Estimate the prevalence of HIV-related risk behaviors, knowledge, and attitudes
3) Establish the behavioural and demographic determinants of HIV prevalence and incidence
4) Determine the exposure to, uptake of and barriers to access to HIV-related services
5) Estimate the prevalence of elevated blood pressure, elevated blood glucose and obesity among the general population and people living with HIV
6) Assess the facilitators of and barriers to viral load suppression among people living with HIV on ART in two regions with the lowest VLS, based on the UPHIA 2020-21 survey findings.

PEPROOM – Patient Engagement and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Oncology using Mobile health tools in Uganda: A mixed-methods formative study
REFNo: SS3900ES
Main Objective
1. This project aims to enhance patient engagement and empowerment by increasing cancer awareness through efficient and effective dissemination of cancer information and advice. It also aims to develop/adapt patient-reported outcomes (PROs) measures for patients with cancer in Uganda, and improve PROs through cancer awareness, PRO tracking, reminders and personalized support. Overall, the project will contribute to research and evidence on patient-centered care in Uganda.
Specific Objectives
