Cost of Fortification of Maize Flour in Uganda
REFNo: HS191ES
The objective of this project is to prepare a background document that will help decision-makers better understand how producer start-up and operational costs and governmental monitoring and evaluation costs associated with maize flour fortification vary by scale of milling operations. Based on existing data and on data collected during this study, we will estimate the private and public sector costs of a (say) 10-year scale-up of a regional maize flour fortification program involving existing very small- and small-scale millers. These cost estimates, when set alongside estimates of micronutrient (MN) needs/deficiencies, and expected coverage of the proposed fortification program, can provide guidance regarding the costs of a maize fortification program among very-small and small-scale milling operations, and may also provide guidance regarding regional targeting of a maize flour fortification programs involving very-small and small-scale millers. For this study, we will also use available data on the private and public-sector costs of large-scale wheat flour fortification in Uganda; the results of this exercise may help decision-makers to compare the expected costs and nutritional benefits of wheat versus maize flour fortification programs.

Traditional Drinks and Local Customs: The Everyday Experiences of Law and Governance in the Border Area of West Uganda.
REFNo: SS169ES
The consumption of alcoholic beverages is widely accepted in Ugandan society. Most popular are locally produced drinks such as tonto (banana wine), bushera ( sorghum beer), ajon (millet beer) and waragi (locally distilled gin), especially in rural areas. The drinks are locally produced in homes, sold and consumed by families and friends in the area and even traded and distributed throughout the country as well as abroad, as in the case of waragi. Many of these drinks have been made for generations and are considered in society to be part of a traditional way of life. They are consumed on social events, such as funerals, weddings and festive celebrations such as Christmas.
This study is situated within larger debates surrounding law, culture, local customs and trade in Africa. The central aim of this research is twofold: to understand the everyday practices and experiences of the people that are involved in production, trade and consumption of locally produced drinks in the border area of West Uganda; and to understand the role that different actors have in governing this trade. In order to understand how these concepts work out in everyday life, practice theory will serve as a lens with which to understand the social power relations of the variety of actors that live at the border.
To address these issues my main research question will be: “How does the relationship between state officials and people involved in unregulated alcohol practices shape law and governance in the border area of West Uganda?â€
