A Genomics Census of Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) in the Greater Budongo-Bugoma Landscape: A Tool to Aid Long-term Monitoring and Conservation of a Critically Threatened Great Ape Population
REFNo: NS957ES
The objective of this 3-year study is to conduct a comprehensive genetics census of wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) living in the Greater Budongo-Bugoma Landscape. This critically important great ape population comprises those in the Budongo and Bugoma Central Forest Reserves (CFRs) and the unprotected ‘corridor’ areas surrounding these main forest blocks. Chimpanzees throughout this landscape are highly threatened by ongoing agricultural and infrastructural developments, including those connected to the development of Uganda’s oil industry, with the chimpanzees residing outside protected areas facing greatest impacts. Fieldwork will involve non-invasive collection of faecal samples from all ‘corridor’ chimpanzee groups, with related data collected on ranges and habitat use, in addition to faecal sampling of populations within the main Budongo and Bugoma CFRs. The study will employ state-of-the-art genomics analyses to provide novel baseline data on the size, structure and viability of this critical but highly threatened population of great apes. The study will directly aid long-term population monitoring and inform effective conservation strategies on the ground to help safeguard the chimpanzees inhabiting this fast-developing region of Uganda.

Electronic Waste Recycling and Environmental Policy in East Africa
REFNo: SS3908ES
Many cities across the global south are rapidly urbanizing and confronting increasing levels of wastes. This poses a challenge for cities’ infrastructural capacity. This project asks how cities and states adapt to rapid population growth and the byproducts of growing industrial sectors, and the wastes these growing forces bring. Batteries and consumer electronics are ubiquitous in daily life, yet the fate of these products once they reach the end of their lives remains understudied. This study seeks to understand how city and state governments make decisions on how to recycle these electronic wastes, how governments work with private sector actors to engineer recycling infrastructures, and where environmental externalities from the increased volumes of electronic wastes end up. This study examines state and city policy surrounding recycling and environmental protection, as well as metal recycler’s strategies for recycling electronic wastes in Kampala, Uganda. One objective of the study is to understand how governments and private recyclers separate electronic wastes from the general overall waste stream. Futhermore, the study seeks to understand different models for recycling electronic wastes once these wastes have been separated.
