Preventive legal empowerment: Early alert and action to strengthen rights in the context of land-based investments
REFNo: SS1115ES
Objectives
The general objective is to explore how preventive legal empowerment support and conflict resolution strategies can help rural communities in Uganda ensure that their land rights are respected, that their communities do not suffer the negative impacts of land-based investments (in particular increased displacement, injustice, environmental degradation, impoverishment, and human rights abuses), and that they can play a more proactive role in democratic, inclusive governance of land and land-based investments.
The specific objectives include the following:
â— Provide proactive legal and technical support to communities facing potential land conflicts, and, by doing so, reduce the severity, intensity, and negative impacts of those conflicts.
â— Drawing on that legal support, provide evidence on the success of preventive legal empowerment approaches for defending the land rights of communities the context of land- based investments.
â— Based on via the early warning hotlines and rapid response mechanisms, gather data on the type and kind of land-based investments being developed in rural and peri-urban areas, including how the investments are approved, who within government approved them, whether the community was properly consulted and gave FPIC, whether the community concluded an agreement with the investor, what benefits, if any, such agreement provides, how the government agencies involved interacted with the community, as well as the effectiveness of community responses to these investments, including in the context of investor-community negotiations.
â— Analyse and disseminate this data to inform national and international policy and establish safeguards and protocols that better protect and preserve community and resource rights.
â— Throughout project implementation, identify and provide tailored technical and legal empowerment support to women, youth and indigenous community leaders, including to support them in playing a leadership role as land rights defenders, advancing an approach to address social differentiation based on gender transformation and intersectionality.

Adoption of Household and landscape level impacts of Biofortified crops in Uganda
REFNo: A171ES
The study aims to collect 10-year follow-up data to construct a national-level panel of bean and sweet potato producers in Uganda, to study the adoption and disadoption dynamics of different varieties and the relationship with virus-resistance, farm structure and landscape level outcomes. This will aim to inform the design of a possible follow-up data collection efforts (later in 2021) to analyze the nutritional-related gains from biofortification.
The study further aims to test various data collection methods for community-level information, with the objective of optimizing survey design of community-level instruments, applicable in a wide range of future studies to analyze the reach of agricultural innovations and their implications.

A Long-Term Follow-up Study for Patients Who
Participated in the GOAL Trial (GOAL-Post)
REFNo: HS1975ES
Primary Objective: To assess whether children who completed the GOAL trial and now have normal
echocardiograms have the same risk for progression as a new group of age/sex matched controls who
have a normal echocardiogram at study entry.
Secondary Objectives: To determine the 5-year rates of RHD progression among children with
persistent latent RHD who receive every-4-week BPG prophylaxis (durability of the intervention to
prevent RHD progression).
Tertiary Objective: To create a biobank that will support future research on RHD genetic
predisposition.

Implementation science research on PrEP delivery and costing within harm reduction services for people who use drugs in Uganda.
REFNo: HS1744ES
Aim 1. To compare PrEP uptake, retention, and adherence when PrEP is delivered through
community-based NSP versus facility-based MAT to PWUD.
Brief approach. We will integrate PrEP delivery into the first-ever MAT program in Kampala
(facility-based model) and a community-based NSP program. We will work with
community advocates for PWUD to recruit 150 people per program and compare uptake
of PrEP, retention, and objective measures of PrEP adherence (plasma tenofovir) during
one year of follow-up.
Aim 1a. To measure the impact of knowledge gained from training peers of PWUD on PrEP.
Brief approach. We will train up to 50 health care providers of PWUD on PrEP service
delivery using the national curriculum on PrEP services delivery. We will administer a
quantitative assessment of PrEP knowledge and experiences with service provision at
three time points: 1. Before the training (Baseline survey), 2. immediately after training
(Post training survey), and 3. ~3 months post training (Exit survey).
Aim 2. To estimate the programmatic costs and conduct budget impact analysis for
integrating PrEP into MAT and NSP programs.
Brief approach. We will conduct costing and budget impact analyses, including estimating
costs incurred for people who elect to not use PrEP, to guide approaches for intervention
scale-up
