Empowering Local Communities to Oversee Waste Management Services
REFNo: SS3614ES

The open burning of household waste is a major public health challenge throughout the Global South, since it creates a direct route of exposure to concentrated air pollution. One reason why people turn to open burning is that the collection of household waste is unreliable. In the context of our study (Nansana Municipality / Wakiso District), municipal and district governments write contracts with private companies to collect waste from specific neighborhoods, but have trouble overseeing those contracts to ensure that pickup schedules are appropriate and that services are reliable. This prevents residents from using services and creates barriers to meeting national goals of reducing the informal disposal of plastic wastes. We will conduct a randomized experiment where the treatment will involve granting authority for the oversight and monitoring of waste services to zones (LC1s), which are the lowest level jurisdiction in Uganda. Specifically, we will provide training to chairpersons in treated zones about (1) new authority for oversight of contractors, including the ability to recommend dismissal of existing contractors who do not meet their obligations; and (2) new responsibilities for recommending contractors in the case of openings. The control zones will continue to have their waste collection contracts centrally managed by municipal or district authorities. Decentralizing authority for waste management may improve the fit of contracts to local conditions. However, the devolution of oversight authority may also raise risks of inefficiency and decreased professionalism in management. We will build upon a previous project with the Nansana Municipal Government and utilize a vetted data collection protocol for measuring informal waste disposal (Buntaine et al. 2024). We will conduct transects through both treatment and control neighborhoods to document the amount of household waste that is disposed informally. The key outcome targeted in the experiment is a decrease in the informal disposal of household waste. We will specifically evaluate whether decentralizing oversight authority decreases the amount of solid waste that is burned in sample zones. Our project aligns with national priorities to decrease the informal disposal of plastic waste.

Social nutrition in guenons in Uganda

I will investigate the effects of conspecific sociality on nutritional intake and nutrient balance in two forest guenon species in Uganda. Though we will investigate the nutrition of both sexes, we will start by examining adult female guenon social nutrition. Female guenons may face a tradeoff between (1) competition with conspecifics, potentially in the context of shallow dominance hierarchies, and with other monkey species and (2) their own nutritional goals. I will examine conspecific social behavior and nutrition at Kanyawara site, Kibale National Park, where I will continue my redtail nutrition work (Bryer 2020) examining nutrient intake and balance of female redtails in the context of conspecific and heterospecific feeding competition. I will also examine diet, then nutrition, and social behavior of females in one L’Hoest’s monkey group.

Overall research objective
The overarching objective of the study is to test the readiness, feasibility, and initial effectiveness of the PfR-App in reducing VAC, IPV, and optimising male engagement in order to lay grounds for a Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) and eventual wider scale-up of the programme.
The specific objectives are to:
1. Assess users’ and facilitators’ perspectives and experiences, acceptability and satisfaction with the PfR-App functionality across contexts and sub-populations.
2. Use the in-app data collection tool to measure evidence of the initial effectiveness of the app by evaluating at the immediate post-test the effect of the digital intervention on knowledge, attitude and practices in parenting.
3. Compare different population characteristics and different delivery options on parents’ engagement with the App and evidence of initial effectiveness, acceptability, attrition, relevance, engagement, usability, and satisfaction.
4. Test the impact of the design features and content of the PfR-App on initial parental engagement and retention in order to achieve the highest possible fidelity/participation rates in the one month after enrolment and use it to improve the App experience for target users.
5. Test the impact of various factors including the timing, frequency, length and order of sessions, push notifications and in-App survey questions on engagement and response rates in order to implement the most effective strategies to achieve the highest possible engagement and retention rates, including optimising male engagement.

Development and Testing of BAJJAJJA: An Intervention to Promote Economic Empowerment and Health of Grandmothers who Provide Primary Care for Grandchildren in Uganda
REFNo: SS3611ES

Main Objective
The study’s objective is to refine and test the feasibility and acceptability of my innovative intervention, BAJJAJJA: Building A Joint Action for JaJJAs which couples an income- generating activity (IGA) with nurse-facilitated group health coaching. This objective is informed by the NIH Stage Model of behavioral intervention development.

Specific Objectives
Aim 1: To refine and adapt the BAJJAJJA intervention through a collaborative and iterative feedback process with a diverse community group of 18 members. In a series of sessions, I will iteratively engage diverse community groups (nurses, local officials, IGA experts, and GMCs) and use cognitive interviewing to gain feedback on the appropriateness of study measures, content, delivery, and intervention format.
Aim 2: To test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the BAJJAJJA intervention in improving economic and health outcomes among 24 Ugandan GMCs. Over a 12-month period and at three time points of assessment, I will use a mixed methodology with a quasi-experimental design to collect data that will be examined to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the intervention on participants’ household income and health outcomes.
Aim 3: To explore the barriers and facilitators to (3a) maintenance of the BAJJAJJA individual intervention benefits (e.g., physical activity level and frequency) and (3b) sustainability of the IGA activities (e.g., grandmothers’ accessing external supports such as community resources) at 6 months post-intervention. Following a mixed methods approach, the 24 GMCs from Aim 2 will be interviewed to further evaluate the long-term maintenance and sustainability of the intervention. Health assessments, interviews, and IGA site visits will be used to explore the intervention outcomes and benefits at 6 months post-intervention.
