A sex and gender-based analysis of access to Vitamin A programmes in four sites in Uganda
REFNo: HS2320ES
The overall objective of the SGBA is to identify gender inequalities and inequities, as well as associated barriers and needs, which affect access and uptake of Vitamin A supplementation programmes. The SGBA will also identify strengths and opportunities and provide recommendations to make VAS programmes more gender responsive.
1. To identify the gender equality issues that influence access to preventative health and nutrition services for child survival, and the quality of services provided.
2. To assess the level of gender mainstreaming in the design of preventative health nutrition services for child survival such as VAS, their implementation and MEAL system and indicators.
3. To identify potential opportunities and enablers and provide recommendations to increase the level of gender responsiveness in preventative health and nutrition services for child survival programming models such as the VAS programme.
4. To explore how COVID-19 affected access to and use of preventative health and nutrition services for child survival programme areas, including VAS programmes, and to provide recommendations for gender-sensitive support to both programme beneficiaries and key services providers and promoters at health facility and community levels.

PEOPLE & PRIMATES: A BIO-GEO-CULTURAL APPROACH TO UNDERSTANDING HUMAN-WILDLIFE INTERACTION
REFNo: NS120ES
We use a multidisciplinary bio-geo-cultural approach to examine the causes and consequences of perceived costs and benefits of human-wildlife interaction in different ecological and cultural settings to ultimately improve protection of biodiversity through mitigation of human-wildlife conflict (HWC) and sustained engagement with local communities at Lake Nabugabo, Uganda and Lewa-Borana Conservancy, Kenya. Specifically, our objectives are to: I) explore the role of landscape characteristics and ecological factors in understanding the behaviour and movement of vervet monkeys, II) evaluate community perceptions of wildlife and research in two villages in Uganda (Bbaale & Bukakata) and one in Kenya (Manyangalo), III) compare community perceptions of crop damage caused by wildlife to objective measurements of crop-foraging behaviour, and IV) develop community-relationships to facilitate long-term sociocultural and biological research on human-wildlife interaction and promote conservation via community outreach.
