Using community engagement to improve snakebite prevention measures in rural Uganda
REFNo: HS2326ES
The project aims to improve awareness and implementation of prevention measures against snakebite envenoming in rural communities in Uganda. In doing so our ultimate aim is to reduce the burden of snakebite envenoming in these high risk areas, using our local connections and community-integration approach to ensure the project continues to deliver this aim long after the end of the funding period.
We will achieve our aim via the following specific objectives:-
- Gain an understanding of current community knowledge and attitudes surrounding snakes and snakebite via interviews and surveys.
- Use the information from the first objective to prepare appropriate materials for co-creation workshops with the local community to promote awareness of local snakes and snakebite risk, implementation of prevention strategies, and discussion of appropriate responses in the event of a bite, all with attention given to targeted and specific solutions to local challenges and context.
- Donation of appropriate resources to assist local communities in reducing the risk of snakebite, such as appropriate footwear to prevent accidental bites on exposed feet and handling equipment to enable trained members of the community to move snakes away from high-risk locations such as school premises and homes (see final objective).
- Implement a 'train-the-trainer' programme to train the co-applicant in safe removal of snakes from premises and to enable him to take advantage of his teacher-training to pass these skills onto other willing members of the community. This will ultimately lead to a sustained network of members of the local community who can maintain risk reduction in the longer term.
