Navigating Global Health Governance: The Social Life of Data, Sustainability, Local Ownership, and Governance Amid the Realignment of U.S. Aid and USAID
REFNo: SS4720ES
The study aims to examine how recent shifts in U.S. foreign assistance and global health governance are being interpreted, negotiated, and experienced by practitioners, policymakers, and stakeholders, with a focus on implications for sustainability, local ownership, and data governance. Specifically, the study seeks to:
1. Document practitioner perspectives on the dissolution of USAID and the reconfiguration of global health governance structures.
2. Examine how notions of sustainability and local ownership are being articulated and operationalized during this transition.
3. Explore the role of data, evidence, and reporting systems in shaping decision-making and power relations in the post-USAID landscape.

Empowering Agriculturalists through Structured Experimentation (EASE)
REFNo: SS4724ES
With this project, we aim to measure how individualised experimentation influences the adoption of modern inputs by improving the ability of farmers to make decisions, based on direct observations, that suit their own soils and farming conditions. To accomplish this, we aim to examine both agronomic and behavioral outcomes:
Agronomic objectives :
- We want to estimate the impact of modern agricultural inputs on maize yields, depending on known soil characteristics measured through soil sample analysis.
- This will allow us to identify complementarities or substitution patterns between inputs (hybrid seeds, fertilizer) by comparing yields across structured experimental squares.
- We also expect this study to assess whether simple field experiments conducted by farmers themselves produce reliable agronomic information that can guide input choices.
Behavioral objectives:
- With this study, we want to understand how farmers engage with the structured experimentation methodology, and document how farmers interpret the outcomes of their experiments and how these outcomes shape their input decisions for the next agricultural season.
- A control/treated group design will also allow us to understand the added value of the EASE training beyond access to inputs alone, by comparing farmers who receive inputs plus experimentation training to farmers who receive inputs only.

Impact of Urban Flooding on Businesses in Kampala
REFNo: SS4689ES
This study examines how extreme rainfall and recurring urban flooding disrupt firms in Kampala and what these disruptions may imply for long-term firm growth. The focus is on medium- to large-sized firms in the manufacturing, wholesale, and retail sectors operating in urban areas. The study aims to document firms’ exposure to flooding and characterises the frequency and duration of flood-related interruptions. It identifies the main channels through which flooding affects business activity, including direct disruptions at business premises and indirect disruptions transmitted through reduced urban connectivity that constrains access to workers, customers, suppliers, and road network. The study also examines how firms perceive flood risk, whether these perceptions influence location and planning decisions, and which coping and adaptation strategies firms adopt to maintain operational continuity. In doing so, it provides evidence on the patterns of firm vulnerability and resilience to flooding in Kampala and generates inputs that can support the design of targeted urban resilience and private sector support policies.
