Resilience Enhancement for Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases in Uganda [ResTick-U]
REFNo: NS1117ES
General Objective
The general objective of this study will be to determine; the drivers of the sporadic occurrence and transmission dynamics of CCHFV, the effect of agro-ecological zones and seasonality on tick abundance | diversity and therefore their vectorial potential, the different tick species that are competent vectors of CCHFV, the molecular and metabolic mechanisms underlying acaricide resistance in different sub-Saharan ecologies , risk of CCHFV outbreaks in different acaricide resistance gradients and the role of acaricide resistance in acerbating tick-borne pathogens [TBPs] transmission , design and evaluate bed-side molecular diagnostics for CCHFV, socio-economic impact of acaricide resistance and the gender-segregated factors that facilitate its emergence and transmission, and build dynamic models that explain the sporadic nature of CCHFV and forecast future CCHFV outbreaks or identify very high-risk areas for targeted surveillance.
Specific Objectives
The specific objectives of this study will be to determine,
i.The prevalence and seasonal variation in tick species from different AEZs of Uganda.
ii.The prevalence and seasonal variation in CCHFV genotypes [and other tick-borne viruses (virome) in ticks across different AEZs of Uganda.
iii.The prevalence and seasonal variation in CCHFV genotypes in cattle from different AEZs of Uganda.
iv. The prevalence and seasonal variation in CCHFV genotypes in humans from different AEZs of Uganda.
v.* Molecular mechanisms that underpin acaricide [Organophosphates, Formamidines, Pyrethroids, and Macrocyclic lactones] resistance levels [low, mid and high] in different AEZs of Uganda
vi. *Biochemical mechanisms that underpin acaricide [Organophosphates, Formamidines, Pyrethroids, Macrocyclic lactones & Fipronil ] resistance levels [low, mid and high] in different AEZs of Uganda
vii. The socio-economic impact of acaricide resistance in different AEZs of Uganda
viii.The gender-segregated factors that drive acaricide resistance in different AEZs of Uganda
ix.The diagnostic performance [compared to standard of care molecular diagnostics] of a new POC CCHFV diagnostic tool [Pebble, Technology] when used for detection of CCHFV genotypes in cattle, ticks, and humans
x.The cost-effectiveness [compared to standard of care molecular diagnostics] of POC CCHFV diagnostic [Pebble, Technology] when used for detection of CCHFV genotypes in cattle, ticks, and humans
xi. Fit mathematical [maximum entropy (MaxEnt) and ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA)] model(s) that best explain(s) /predict(s) tick population and CCHFV dynamics under different AEZs of Uganda
*These research Objectives will be resolved at individual acaricide level to make them specific enough. We have kept them at group level for now because we are unable to know the different acaricides that are heavily used in different AEZs

REFNo: SS4632ES
The aim of this research is to explore how humanitarian waiting-scapes are shaped,
sustained, and transformed.
The specific objectives are:
A. To analyze how humanitarian actors (local and international) design and manage waiting in aid
sites, including by documenting the spatial and rhythmic dimensions of waiting in specific places (medical points, distribution areas, information offices).
B. To examine how people affected by humanitarian crises experience these humanitarian practices of waiting (i.e. in terms of physical and psychosocial well-being, dignity, economic),
adapt and negotiate them.
C. To observe the social dynamics that emerge in waiting situations (mutual support, resource

Evaluating a “nearly free hour” for health centers in rural Uganda
REFNo: SS4726ES
This study has four specific objectives:
1. Evaluate the effects of a discounted, group visits window on ODH health centers, including how many ultrapoor patients visit the clinic during the discounted, group visits window.
2. Compare the discounted window to an all-day discount to understand whether a time-limited discount is (relatively) more effective at screening in the UP.
3. Document the extent to which the discounted window cannibalizes revenue by shifting patients from other times of day to the discounted window.
4. Analyze whether discounts encourage earlier treatment for mild/moderate malaria, and correspondingly reduce visits for severe malaria.
