Value chain based Taenia solium control in Northern Uganda (Research activity being applied for: Rapid value chain scoping)
REFNo: SS1296ES
The overall goal is to develop and trial a locally acceptable and appropriate value chain-based control program against T. solium codesigned through an inclusive participatory approach and tailored for the project area.
Specifically, the project has the following objectives of which Objective 1 is the subject of this application.
1. Assess, describe, and map the pig value chain and the context for the control of T. solium in four districts (Kitgum, Pader, Lamwo and Agago districts) in Northern Uganda.
2. Conduct social network analysis to map movement of pigs within the districts to understand where they (farmers, traders, transporters, pork joint operators, butchers) get pigs and where most of the pigs are slaughtered to enable proper targeting of the interventions especially those targeting pork joints and consumers.
3. To utilize social network analysis and ‘net-mapping’ techniques to identify stakeholders essential in the control of T. solium and understand their relationships, power-dynamics, motivations
4. In a participatory manner with the stakeholders, identify best bet interventions to control Taenia solium and improve the value chain
5. To conduct an ex-ante impact assessment to understand the impacts of the proposed interventions
6. To implement a set of locally acceptable control strategies against Taenia solium infections targeted at various nodes of the pig value chain including market-based incentives to support uptake.
7. Conduct an ex-post impact assessment of the intervention in reducing the burden of Taenia solium infections and improving profitability of pig enterprises
The current application is for activities under objective 1 (Assess, describe, and map the pig value chain in four districts (Kitgum, Pader, Lamwo and Agago districts) in Northern Uganda). For the subsequent activities we will be making separate applications or amendments and attaching the necessary documents.
