A sex and gender-based analysis of access to Vitamin A programmes in four sites in Uganda
REFNo: HS2320ES
The overall objective of the SGBA is to identify gender inequalities and inequities, as well as associated barriers and needs, which affect access and uptake of Vitamin A supplementation programmes. The SGBA will also identify strengths and opportunities and provide recommendations to make VAS programmes more gender responsive.
1. To identify the gender equality issues that influence access to preventative health and nutrition services for child survival, and the quality of services provided.
2. To assess the level of gender mainstreaming in the design of preventative health nutrition services for child survival such as VAS, their implementation and MEAL system and indicators.
3. To identify potential opportunities and enablers and provide recommendations to increase the level of gender responsiveness in preventative health and nutrition services for child survival programming models such as the VAS programme.
4. To explore how COVID-19 affected access to and use of preventative health and nutrition services for child survival programme areas, including VAS programmes, and to provide recommendations for gender-sensitive support to both programme beneficiaries and key services providers and promoters at health facility and community levels.

Improving the TB/HIV Clinic-Laboratory Interface in Uganda
REFNo: HS2162ES
The overall goals of this project include: (1) Improve TB case finding and TB treatment among eligible persons in Uganda (2) Improve time-to-TB diagnosis and time-to-TB therapy or treatment initiation among HIV-positive and HIV-negative persons with presumptive or confirmed TB in Uganda.
To achieve the above goals, CLICQ! – ECHO implementation has four major objectives:
1. LAB TESTING SERVICES
Increase the number and proportion of HIV-positive and HIV-negative persons with presumptive TB that receive TB laboratory testing services and/or accurate test results in a timely manner.
2. INITIATE APPROPRIATE TREATMENT
Increase the number and proportion of HIV-positive and HIV-negative TB patients that initiate appropriate (drug-sensitive or drug-resistant) TB treatment.
3. TURNAROUND TIMES
Reduce turnaround times associated with TB laboratory receipt of specimens for testing, lab-confirmation of TB disease, and return of TB laboratory test results and/ or initiation of appropriate TB therapy.
4. DiCE ASSESSMENTS ALONE VERSUS DiCE ASSESSMENTS WITH CQI TRAINING
Quantify the value of providing sites DiCE assessments alone versus providing sites DiCE assessments plus 2 learning sessions that are strengthened with weekly, ECHO-based, mentorship as well as ad hoc consultations via WhatsApp.
