From Migrant to Citizen to Refugee: a Global History of the 1972 Ugandan Asian Expulsion
REFNo: SS2625ES
I will assess the impact of a connected, sovereign Afro-Asian world on the international order and attendant structures. Within the long-term aim to understand citizenship, diaspora, and immigration my immediate focus is the 1972 Ugandan Asian Expulsion. From Migrant to Citizen to Refugee traces how a transformation of citizenship across the British Empire took place, with the expulsion of the Ugandan Asians by Idi Amin in 1972 and their resettlement in Britain, Canada, and India following the decolonisation of East Africa. It emphasises this transformation of citizenship as part of a worldwide process of decolonisation.
The project also explores how these changes to citizenship also changed UN-led practices. I explore how humanitarian assistance was provided, with the international community becoming complicit in the social reconfigurations enacted by postcolonial states. Deemed ‘refugees’ in some cases and ‘citizens’ in places like India, Canada and the UK, Uganda’s Asians’ citizenship in other areas of the former British Empire became fluid in the discourse of immigration and belonging in the 1970s as a result of postcolonial citizenship itself being transformed.

The overarching and long-term goal for the DASH research activities is to boost adolescent health in SAA through rigorous population-based surveillance, intervention and policy research in seven SSA countries including Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania and Uganda (henceforth referred to as the ‘African DASH partner countries’). The key functions to address these objectives are to combine the efficient collection and use of important adolescent health data, and the employment of robust quantitative and qualitative methods of data collection and evaluation with local domain-specific expert and stakeholder knowledge on the health domains nutrition & physical activity, sexual & reproductive health, and mental health & violence (henceforth referred to as the ‘DASH health domains’).,To examine and assess transportability of DASH interventions and population-level policies (Transportability), in order to context relate to adolescent and young adult health, with the aim to understand how this context moderates the impact of interventions and policies; subsequently we will aim to transport the evidence on impact, generated within DASH, to other contexts in SSA,To evaluate population-level policies (Policy evaluation) with the aim to prioritize and select multiple population-level policies, related to the DASH health domains, which likely affect the health of adolescents and young adults, and to subsequently evaluate and understand the impact and mechanisms of these policies in Ghana, South Africa and Tanzania,To evaluate the impact of the DASH interventions (Intervention evaluation), their impact and performance,To co-design DASH interventions (Co-Design) with the aim to gain an understanding of local intervention needs and will co-design and pilot test interventions to improve nutrition & physical activity in South Africa, sexual & reproductive health in Uganda, and mental health & violence in Tanzania; these designed interventions will then be locally adapted in each African DASH partner country,To implement and test multiple light-touch interventions, which are relatively non-invasive, resource non-intensive interventions that aim to influence intentions, motivations and behaviors related to the three DASH health domains,To conduct surveillance of health and health-related risks (Surveillance) in order to determine trends and changes in adolescent and youth health, well-being and behaviors, particularly related to the three DASH health domains.,

Toxoplasma in chimpanzees (Pilot study)
REFNo: NS789ES
This study is a pilot study which aims to look at the behavioral effects of the parasite Toxoplasma gondii in two populations of wild chimpanzees at the Budongo conservation field station. the project aims to understand correlations between infection and behaviors, to see if there are differences between infected and non infected individuals. The objectives of the research are the following:
- To see whether infection by the parasite toxoplasma gondii changes behavior of infected chimpaanzees by comparing infected and uninfected individuals (by comparing infected and non infected individuals)
- Establish infection status in a population of wild chimpanzees by collecting urine and check which individuals are infected and those which aren't (collecting urine non invasively)
- To see whether infection influences risky behaviors in wild chimpanzees (aggression towards higher ranking chimpanzees, foraging close to the borders of the territory)
- Determine if infection influences reaction to unfamiliar stimul (false fruits, remoted controlled animals maybe)
- Establish trends in behavior and compare infected and non-infected individuals
- Collect behavioral data in the purpose of establishing new studies possibilities
